NACOGDOCHES - The Garden Capital of Texas will showcase some of its most beautifully landscaped gardens during the Tour of Home Gardens, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, May 20 and from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday May 21.
Tickets are $20 and will be on sale beginning Wednesday, April 5 at the Charles Bright Visitor Center, 200 E. Main St., The Blue Horse Bakery, 112 N. Church St., The Liberty Bell, 422 E. Main St. and International Tours, 3208 N. University Dr.
This exclusive tour is thoughtfully curated by the Garden Capital of Texas Committee and includes four stunning private home gardens, including two at Lake Nacogdoches, and public gardens in the downtown area.
Details for each garden destination are on the ticket. Sponsors of the Home Garden Tours are StretchER, BancorpSouth, The Liberty Bell and Blue Horse Bakery. The money raised by the tour will help fund the Garden Capital committee's planting efforts.
The Arbor Day Foundation officially designated Nacogdoches as a Tree City in 2015, after the city partnered with the Garden Capital committee and Keep Nacogdoches Beautiful to meet four core standards of urban forestry management.
The Garden Capital Committee planted more than 300 trees last year in honor of Nacogdoches' 300th anniversary, and recently planted flowering shrubs and other plants around the chapel at Millard's Crossing.
