PICNICKING
With purchased admission, visitors to New England Botanic Garden are welcomed to picnic throughout the grounds at our scattered tables or may spread a blanket on any mown grassy area. You may bring camping chairs, but please, no tables, as tables interfere with the experiences of other guests. You can also enjoy your meal on the tables in the Northeast Link (a small room on the east side of the Orangerie). Barbecuing, outside alcohol, and outside catering are not permitted. Please plan to take your trash with you when you leave.

VENDING MACHINES AND DRINKS
Vending machines with snacks and cold drinks are available in the Northeast Link (a small room on the east side of the Orangerie).  These machines accept cash and card.

Don’t forget to bring your reusable water bottle! In an effort to be a more sustainable organization, we do not sell single use plastic bottles of water. Drinking fountains are available near all restrooms and a bottle filler is available near the main restrooms.

RESTROOMS
Restrooms for visitors are located off the main hallway in the Stoddard Education and Visitors Center and in The Ramble garden. We also offer gender neutral bathrooms on the lower level of the Visitors Center. 

MAMAVA
We welcome breastfeeding and bottle-feeding in all spaces. A Mamava lactation pod is available to visitors and is located on the lower level of the Visitors Center. Download the Mamava app from the Apple App Store or Google Play to unlock the pod while you are here or ask for the code at the Visitor Services desk.
