Starting in 2023 we will begin offering private tours. If you are interested in learning more please contact Danielle at dgoldfinger@evergreen.ca. Also please note the City of Toronto’s Park Policy below.
City of Toronto Policy on Group Use of Park Space
Please note that the Weston Family Quarry Garden and Don Valley Brick Works Park (the park, trails and ponds behind Evergreen Brick Works) is maintained by the City of Toronto. Access to this natural area is carefully managed in order to protect the sensitive and valuable ecosystem.
If you are visiting as a group, and would like to access the park trails on your own (i.e., outside of a tour or walk organized by Evergreen), you must contact the City of Toronto for approval prior to your arrival. You may be required to obtain a permit, and should allow six weeks to obtain approval. Contact greentoronto@toronto.ca for more information, or to request a permit.
Accessibility
Evergreen is committed to making Evergreen Brick Works an accessible destination for our diverse community, including people with disabilities. Please visit our Accessibility page for more information. There is no charge for personal care workers on private tours and walks.
