The Mountain Garden Walks tour for July 2023 features six lovely Vermont gardens, all beautifully integrated into their unique properties and scaled to fit the landscapes. The tour offers a variety of size of properties: two are large with extensive perennial gardens, brooks and ponds with meadow and mountain vistas, while another features small gardens closely surrounding a charming, old country house. Stone walls and terraces as well as evergreen tree lines provide unique backdrops for these wonderful gardens.
Some of the gardens are the personal designs of the owners, reflecting their own character, although others are carefully maintained professional designs. Three of the gardens are within walking distance of each other in the lovely Landgrove Valley, and the other two are only a short drive away. Our tour booklet will include a brief history of the valley and its early inhabitants. This tour will offer inspiration and beauty to both the avid gardener and the viewer simply out for a summer stroll.
Garden tours in the “mountain towns” have a special setting with vistas of Bromley, Stratton and Magic (Glebe) mountains from every property. Gardens build on these vistas, each one presenting a unique and inviting landscape of stone walls, woodlands, perennials and wildflower gardens. All proceeds go to Green Mountain Gardeners Lib Thieme Scholarship Fund. $30. Tickets are available online through Eventbrite by clicking HERE.
