On the last day of May, under the full blue moon, we reflected on the beauty of nature and our vibrant garden community.

Thank you to all who attended, your presence and participation made a successful evening. Thank your to our dedicated staff and interns, volunteers, Now and Zen Catering, Sippin’ Pretty Cocktails, and artist Shawndavid Berry Woodworks. We truly appreciated the support from South County Tourism and the beautiful music provided by Anam Cara.

Thank you to all the models who brought smiles to every single face in the crowd. Your confidence and movement brought the garments and Sara's storytelling to life. Congratulations!!

A special thank you to eco-fashion artist Sara Seelenbrandt, whose work was a breathtaking fusion of art and nature, brought to life through poignant spoken word. Her performance was not just beautiful, it was deeply moving and resonated with all of us. Something special I won't soon forget.

We are feeling wrapped in nature and ready for the Botanical Fashion show with artist Sara Seelenbrandt!

Feel Wrapped in Nature brought the most beautiful dried flowers, seed pods, cones and other natural materials to inspire us to create our own unique fashion. Part of the message of this show is to reconsider the fast fashion trends that are damaging our planet.

Thank you Sara for a beautiful and fun day and a powerful message.

As the azaleas begin to fade, the gardens take on a whole new beauty. Rhododendron, fern, Solomon’s seal, moss, ginger, astilbe, trout lily, and countless woodland plants are filling in as the lush green of the forest begins to take over.

Creativity is blooming everywhere as well, from a full Plein Air painting class with Jessica Shaffer Fine Art and woodland sculpture installations by Shawndavid Berry to our incredible Botanical Fashion Show this Sunday with Feel Wrapped in Nature

A few spots still remain for Friday’s Fascinator Workshop at 10 AM. Join us!
