There is no outside food or drink allowed on the estate except at the following picnic spots: the Lagoon and trails, the Bass Pond and trails, and the Sloped Lawn in front of Diana Statue. No outside alcohol is ever allowed, so you must purchase wine and beer at one of the gift shops to take it on a picnic. You can actually purchase everything you need for a lovely picnic and charcuterie board at the Winery. Tailgating with large coolers, grills and tarps is strictly prohibited. Picnic baskets, blankets and small collapsible coolers are fine.
