    Gardens Revived!, the Museum of Old Newbury’s 37th Annual Garden Tour, will feature stunning private gardens located throughout the Newburyport area. The tour highlights the endless possibilities of gardens as living works of art that can be transformed by natural growth or careful planning. Tour the gardens to enjoy lush foliage and colorful flowers, get ideas for your own backyard oasis, or spend a day out with family and friends in the sunshine.

Attendees can outfit their gardens for the summer at the annual plant sale, peruse garden and home goods at the Gilded Horse boutique, hear expert guest speakers share their insight on gardening topics, and walk through the historic Cushing House. The Cushing House’s own 19th century garden will also be featured as part of the tour.
