Sippican Woman’s Club to visit Highfield Hall and Gardens

Sep 21, 2020

On Friday October 9, the Sippican Woman’s Club will visit Highfield Hall and Gardens.  

Weather permitting, there will be two walking tours: One of the mansion and one of the gardens. Docent Sally Colacicco will lead a walking tour of the restored 1878 estate of the Beebe family.

The Mansion is one of the few remaining examples of Stick-style Queen Anne architecture in the Northeast.

A separate walk, led by George Chapman, Director of Landscape, will tour the property’s two magnificent gardens which underwent restoration from 2011 to 2013.  The tour will be split into two groups, and each group will have an opportunity to see the gardens as well as the mansion’s exterior.

This visit be may be cancelled due to inclement weather.

Lunch will be provided by Shipyard Galley. There are garden benches or chairs on the porch, or participants many bring a beach towel on which to sit and safely spread out while eating.

RSVP is required. For information on transportation and lunch choices, go to sippicanwomansclub.org
