Troy, Mich. - The Somerset Collection’s North Grand Court will transform into a spring garden to welcome the Easter Bunny on March 20. Children of all ages can get a free picture with the Easter Bunny while playing in the gardens with Auntie Leecia Badgerly and Finnegan Fox, two characters who will sing songs and read storybooks.
This season, if shoppers bring 25 dollars worth of gifts purchased at the Somerset Collection’s 180-plus retail stores (department stores excluded), they can have a complimentary Easter basket made in the garden. The baskets will include a free chocolate bunny from the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory.

The beautiful spring garden is adorned with paved pathways, leading guests through arbors of primrose, tulips, azaleas, daffodils and hydrangea. The design, construction and planting of the spring garden were donated by three of the Somerset Collection’s partners, Golf Stream Group, Action Fence, and Planterra.
