The Nebraska Statewide Arboretum (NSA) will host a Garden Walk in Lincoln on Tuesday, July 8, from 5-8 p.m. A second Garden Walk will be held in Omaha on Tuesday, July 15.

Eight gardens will be open to tour in Lincoln, with owners available at the properties to answer questions and provide information about the plants, garden design and landscaping. All of the gardens included on the tour are maintained by NSA members and feature native plants and sustainable landscaping.

“We’ve shifted our annual garden walk from September to July this year to allow gardeners to show their gardens and landscapes when they are in full summer bloom,” said NSA Executive Director Hanna Pinneo. “We love this opportunity for our members to showcase their sustainable landscaping efforts and for visitors to find inspiration and ideas for their own gardening endeavors. It’s a lot of fun and a great opportunity for gardeners to connect with one another.”

Tickets for the Lincoln Garden Walk are $10/car for NSA members and $15/car for non-members. Ticket purchases help to support NSA’s tree planting, garden making and environmental education outreach work all across the state. Upon registering, participants will be emailed a map of the gardens on the tours, the street addresses and a description of each.
