The Scattered Gardens
Gardens will be open to the public from 9:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. This is a rain-or-shine event.
Each landscape will feature innovative, unique, and sustainable gardening trends, themes, and strategies that attendees can use to transform their own yard, garden, or backyard into an outdoor oasis. A few of the topics that attendees will discover include:
- Gardening on a steep slope
- Gardening for pollinators
- Drought tolerant and low-maintenance gardening
- Stumpery gardening
- Muncie’s historic people, places, and culture
Extension Master Gardeners and homeowners will be present at each garden to answer your questions.
In addition to the tour, several local artists will be painting landscape scenes from the gardens en plein air. Watch as they capture the beauty of the garden.
Attendees can also enter into a drawing to win one of several great door prizes.
Tickets are $7 per person in advance of the tour, or $10 per person on the day of the tour. Children 12 and under are free.
