This is not your average garden tour, it will be an experience!
Join us for a wonderful day exploring seven of the Garden Fairies’ magical gardens around the Tarpon Springs area. See how a flock of fairies were able to transform each other’s gardens into wonderlands featuring a stained glass mosaic patio, glimmering stepping stones, painted patios, superbly enhanced spas, bountiful borders, beautiful butterfly gardens, noteworthy native plants and much more.
The tour starts at Fred Howard Park where you will see butterfly gardening demonstrated by Pam Trass, local butterfly expert and author of “Florida Butterfly Gardening”.
You will be transported in style via custom coach from garden to garden.
Eat sumptuous food and drink in magically transformed tropical pockets of paradise. Each stop will feature food from different southern sun baked cultures. Sample “My Big Fat Greek Breakfast Pizzas”, Caribbean dips and salsas, Carolina inspired ribs and wings, New Orleans Jambalaya, Hawaiian grilled delights, all the while enjoying one-of-a-kind gardens. Look forward to a divine tropical dessert and exotic coffee party and silent auction at our last stop! Garden Fairies will demonstrate some of their favorite projects & techniques at every house on the tour.
