Join us on an unforgettable journey through six stunning gardens, each offering unique inspiration and beauty. Explore diverse landscapes and creative garden designs that showcase the splendor of nature. Five of the gardens are located in Fairmont, and one is located in rural Truman. Each garden has its own personality; from formal, to whimsical, to bohemian. Proceeds from the garden tour will benefit the Chubb House and will go towards replacing the original hot water heater from the restoration. For this event, Imagine Martin has collaborated with the Chubb House and volunteers from the City of Lakes Garden Club and Master Gardeners of Martin County, who will be assisting at each of the garden locations. The Chubb House is open every Wednesday morning from 10:00a-12:00p for an informal Coffee Time with volunteers.
