Perennial Planters

This is the year for the Garden Tour!

The Manchester Garden Club is proud to support their sister club, the Perennial Planters . Every two years the Perennial Planters conducts Manchester 's premier garden tour, Through the Garden Gate. Proceeds from the tour help the group maintain public gardens (including Munroe Park at the intersection of East Center and Porter Streets) and to contribute to local and national charities and scholarships.

This year, the tour will be held, rain or shine, on Saturday June 20 th from 10-4.

Although the tour varies somewhat every two years, those who attend the tour benefit from the diverse and creative efforts of local gardeners. This year, the tour will include:

An historic house garden
An 18 th century style garden
A courtyard garden
An eclectic herb garden
And several other unique gardens!

Approximately five hundred people visit these gardens during the event! The printed program acts as both the entry ticket and a map of the tour, and is made available through local businesses and garden centers, including Woodland Gardens and Garden Sales.
