Event Details

Ten years before Tennessee became a state, David Wessels Howell planted a garden where the Cherokee still roamed and established a family business that would last over two centuries. Join Laura Still on a journey through time, from the frontier to the present, and learn the stories and secrets of one of Knoxville's hidden treasures. 

This 90 minute tour will meet in front of the Visitors Center on 2743 Wimpole Ave. Parking is available onsite. Please use the Dogwood lot or the Carriage House lot.
