Accessible Viewing of the Field of Daffodils
The Field of Daffodils is viewable from the Garden of Inspiration, an ADA compliant garden that is located above the field. For those who want a closer look, there is a mixed dirt and gravel path that stretches across the top of the field, but this pathway is not ADA compliant, and navigation is heavily dependent on each visitor’s level of mobility.

We believe in making New England Botanic Garden at Tower Hill accessible to everyone. Our commitment to this goal earned us designation as a UP Organization by the Massachusetts Cultural Council. Many of our outdoor gardens and all of our indoor facilities (conservatories, classrooms, café, and restrooms) are wheelchair and stroller accessible.

PARKING & DROP OFF INFORMATION
The Garden has designed its entry and parking lot using a universally accessible design. Accessible parking is located closest to the Visitors Center entrance. Please follow signage to access this lot. This parking area connects to a gradually inclined, ADA compliant path that leads through an entry pavilion before crossing the Garden driveway and meeting the main path to the Visitors Center.

A drop-off area with benches is located at the Garden’s entry, close to the main path that leads to the Visitors Center. Visitors are welcome to either drop guests off at this location while they park or park in the drop-off zone for up to 15 minutes in order to accompany guests into the Visitor Center. To view a map of the drop-off area, click here.
