Garden Tour

Great Gift Idea!

Want the perfect gift for Mother’s Day, May 12 or Father’s Day, June 16?

The Fifth Annual SullivanArc Garden Tour features an exclusive look at private gardens in and around the Village of Bloomingburg on Saturday, June 29. The tour leaves from the Meditation Garden at Our Lady of the Assumption Church in Bloomingburg, where it returns at day’s end for a complimentary wine and cheese reception.

This is an exceptional collection of eight beautiful gardens, including: an eclectic country farm garden, a meandering herb garden, a unique architectural home, a home with an infinity pool and an infinite view, and more.

The tour is hosted by SullivanArc and Sullivan Renaissance with support from the Wurtsboro Board of Trade – to benefit SullivanArc programs for people with developmental disabilities.
Cost is $40 per person for the guided bus tour, which includes travel on a Rolling V coach bus, tip, guide, door prizes and snacks. Self-guided tour tickets and maps are also available for those who want to drive their own vehicles for $25 per person (not per car). Following the tour is a complimentary wine and cheese reception for all ticket holders and garden owners.
