About this Event
The Springfield Garden Club in association with the Springfield Museums presents a travelogue to inspire us all as we spend the winter months dreaming about summer. New England has a rich gardening heritage. Author of “The Garden Tourist's New England,” garden designer Jana Milbocker will take you on a fantastic tour of gardens and nurseries in New England and will provide all the information you need to make the most of your visit. From the breathtaking flower gardens of Mount Desert Island in Maine, to Colonial Revival gardens in Connecticut and New Hampshire, topiary gardens in Rhode Island, and botanical gardens in Vermont and Massachusetts, there is something for every gardener to enjoy in a tour of the region.
