Sit back and enjoy these armchair tours of some of the most gorgeous gardens in New England. These lively presentations are illustrated with Joanne’s professional photography featuring multiple gardens in each presentation.

In Part 1, at Glen Magna and Stevens-Coolidge Place, we will see our first examples of the transformation from farmland to fashionable estate that transpired in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. Among other stops in Part 1 are three rose gardens, two very different Preservation Society of Newport properties and the unique, Bridge of Flowers in Shelburne Falls, MA.

Support for this program was provided by the Southborough Cultural Arts Council and the Southborough Community Fund, a fund of the Foundation for Metrowest.
