Stoneleigh is one of the Philadelphia region’s newest public gardens, opening in 2018 after more than a century of loving care by three different families. Extraordinary trees, sweeping vistas, and intimate garden spaces provide opportunities to explore, learn, relax, and find inspiration. Stoneleigh celebrates the beauty of native plants and the importance of biodiversity. Guests are inspired to garden in concert with nature, which is essential to improving the health of our planet. Stoneleigh offers free admission and is part of a 23,000-acre network of open space conserved and stewarded by Natural Lands, a non-profit conservation organization.
