  • Friday, June 5 – Saturday, June 6 – Concord Museum Garden Tour

    Visit private Concord-area gardens on June 5 and 6, from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m., rain or shine, sponsored by The Concord Museum.  The Concord Museum is a great place to start any visit to the historic town of Concord, Massachusetts. The Museum, founded in 1886, serves as a center of learning and cultural enjoyment for the thousands of visitors touring Concord each year, as well as for area residents of all ages.  Celebrate the 20th Anniversary of this special event.  Each of the eight private gardens reflects the individual interests and passions of the owners and their families and will inspire both new gardeners designing their first perennial bed and accomplished landscapers with acres of “garden rooms.”  The tour of Concord-area gardens is self-guided and self-paced, beginning each day at 9:00 a.m. and continuing until 4:00 p.m. Garden-goers should arrive at the Museum to pick up their maps prior to starting out.  Single-day tickets for either Friday or Saturday may be reserved in advance (through June 4) or may be purchased on the day of the tour.  Single-Day Advance Tickets: $25 Members, $30 Nonmembers; Single Day Tickets at the door: $30 Museum Members, $35 Nonmembers.  No refunds or exchanges; no photography.
