Happy winter solstice! Or what passes for one, anyway. While it’s supposedly the first day of winter—the shortest day of the year and the longest night, in fact—you’ll still find green lawns and the occasional early fall sky to look forward to when you visit NYBG. We anxiously await the first snowfall!
