Directions to JC Raulston Arboretum
From the Raleigh 440 beltline, take the Hillsborough St. exit and turn West on Hillsborough St. going toward the N.C. State Fairgrounds.
Turn left on Blue Ridge Rd., cross the railroad tracks, and take an
immediate left onto Beryl Rd.
The Arboretum entrance is on the right shortly after Pylon Drive.
The Ruby McSwain Education Building is inside the JC Raulston Arboretum (affiliated with NC State University Horticultural Department), with gardens in front of it. Enter through the pedestrian gate on Beryl Road or the entrance into the parking lot on Beryl Road, then walk along the paths to the visitor center or the education building.
FYI: Exceptions: "The November meeting includes the annual business meeting...sometimes also a program, sometimes not. There's not a meeting in October because of the Fair,and the December "meeting" is the awards banquet. So - essentially there's no meeting with a guaranteed program from September until January. BUT: there are good lectures, tours, and programs at the Arboretum itself!"
