The institutions of Cranbrook never would have been established had it not been for the dream of its founders, George and Ellen Booth, a dream that was a lifetime in the making. In 1904, the Booths purchased a badly run-down and overgrown farm in the gently rolling countryside of Bloomfield Hills, quite a distance from their home of 21 years in Detroit. Working largely from plans drawn up by Booth, teams of landscape architects, farmers, gardeners, and laborers were engaged to transform the untended fields of Cranbrook into a beautiful country estate and working farm. This is just the beginning of the long and rich history of Cranbrook. Join us for this interesting, and eye-opening presentation to learn more about this international jewel right in our own backyard! Kindly sponsored by James Danley & Associates.
