Continue One of Gifford Pinchot's Favorite Traditions

Ice Cream Social 062526

Throughout his life, Gifford Pinchot welcomed family, friends, and visitors to Grey Towers to share good food, conversation, and the beauty of the estate. Today, you can continue that tradition by enjoying a specially prepared picnic from one of our Pinchot Picnic Partners.

Simply place your order, pick it up on your way to Grey Towers, spread out a blanket on the lawn, and enjoy an afternoon of live music, historic surroundings, free ice cream, and community.

Our local restaurant partners have created exclusive picnic offerings especially for this event. Whether you're looking for handcrafted sandwiches, gourmet charcuterie, chef-inspired cuisine, or classic picnic favorites, you'll find the perfect meal for your day at Grey Towers.

We encourage you to support these wonderful Milford businesses that are helping make the Pinchot Picnic a memorable community celebration.
