We are delighted to present the 2022 Hamilton County Master Gardener Garden Tour! This year’s tour features seven unique gardens located in the St. Elmo and Lookout Mountain, including five private homes, the Lookout Mountain Conservancy, and Fairy Trail Garden, a public space with native plantings. These diverse gardens highlight the unique visions of the property owners, featuring landscapes with sculptures, stone work, and unusual specimen plantings, as well as pollinators and native plants, cottage gardens filled with herbaceous perennials; plus a greenhouse and raised vegetable beds with edibles and herbs.
The gardens can be visited in any order. Tours of the gardens are self-guided, so feel free to take your time exploring the properties. Parking is on the street or where designated. These are private homes, so we cannot guarantee that all locations are handicapped accessible. We suggest that visitors wear comfortable clothing and appropriate shoes for walking. Home owners and Master Gardeners will be on hand to answer questions. There will be signs and plant lists available for identifying many of the plantings. We hope you enjoy the tour!
