The Beaufort Garden Club invites you to explore a “Garden A Day”…
This year’s theme is the Club’s recognition of the community volunteer work done by Master Gardeners. All of the gardens are “Master Gardener Gardens”; designed, planted and maintained by the Master Gardener homeowners.
Each garden is a unique representation of the homeowner’s vision for their private space. They have generously agreed to open their gardens to the public for this much anticipated event. Garden A Day began 18 years ago as a way for the Club to celebrate National Garden Week; always the first full week in June. It has become one of the area’s must successful annual events. Last year’s Garden a Day hosted over 2,000 guests. Admission is free; the club’s gift to the people of Beaufort.
These are not botanical gardens. You won’t see many plant labels, but there will be Master Gardeners on hand to answer questions. Bring a friend. You’ll be glad you did.
