To celebrate the unique diversity of gardens in greater Chapel Hill, the Chapel Hill Spring Garden Tour will feature both the breadth and depth of eight remarkable gardens. Ranging from hidden bungalow gardens to majestic landscapes, spacious rural wooded gardens to urban design, the tour will showcase the “miracles of spring” in both elegant and whimsical presentations.
As a bonus, visits to the North Carolina Botanical Garden and the Mary Scroggs Elementary School Student Garden in Southern Village are included. The Botanical Garden features native plants and was 2011’s “Best Park/Greenway” in Chapel Hill. Local artists from PAINT NC (Plein Air IN the Triangle) will be painting in the Botanical Garden with one of the paintings being offered as a raffle item. The student garden at Scroggs Elementary enhances learning about sustainable gardening through a seed-to-sow experience, engendering a sense of place at an early age.
