  • Friday, July 20, 9:30 am – 4:30 pm – The Sea Around Us Home and Garden Tour

    The beautiful Boothbay Peninsula in Maine is the setting for Boothbay Region Garden Club’s annual tour, this year entitled The Sea Around Us. Each year they try to include homes and gardens in attractive and unfamiliar locations to give the visitor an opportunity to see Boothbay’s wonderful and varied communities. Some homes are new and some are old, but each has its own special appeal.

    You will be delighted to see what the gracious homeowners have accomplished with their properties. If you enjoy seeing different architecture, furnishings, and gardens you will have the opportunity to gather some new ideas, learn a few things about gardens, and just have a fun-filled day in the Boothbay area! Tickets for our Home and Garden Tour are $30 in advance and $35 the day of the tour. They may be purchased at the Boothbay Harbor Chamber of Commerce at 192 Townsend Ave., Boothbay Harbor or by contacting Irene Gerny 207-633-5052 or Pat McMurry 207-633-7405.
