If you have questions, contact us.


Open Gardens tours have been one of the Society’s most popular events, with each garden receiving over 100 guests during the afternoon (noon to 4:00 pm)

Gardens do not need to be perfect. They should be able to engage a visitor for at least 15 minutes
with the plant choices and arrangement, gardening methods (such as containers, type of raised beds,
water collection, irrigation methods, xeriscape, native plantings, composting, mulching, staking, hail protection, and solutions to challenges), hardscape, aesthetic, and purpose. It is okay for your garden to be a work in progress, just ensure that the description reflects what the visitor will experience.

If you are concerned about having enough to share in your garden, consider asking your neighbours to host at the same time and make it a bit of a block party! Seeing several gardens nearby makes the travel time worthwhile.

After submitting a hosting request, an Open Garden coordinator will contact you. They may request a garden visit to ensure that the garden can safely accommodate visitors and make suggestions to help ensure that you can host a successful event.
