Garden Walk

The Garden Walk is a family-friendly, public event drawing more than 1,000 people touring featured home gardens.

The Garden Walk is a fundraising event hosted by the Munroe-Meyer Guild, a supporting board of the Munroe-Meyer Institute.

Rain or shine, the Garden Walk is generally held on the second weekend in June.

56th Annual Garden Walk

Sunday, June 8, 2025  |  9 a.m. - 4 p.m.

Home gardens paired with classic cars, artists and local vendors make this a crowd-favorite event that you will not want to miss!

The annual Garden Walk tradition is successful because of the generosity of homeowners who share their gardens and the countless volunteers who assist at garden sites.

Raising around $30,000 annually, the event has raised more than one million dollars over the past five decades. Proceeds benefit MMI with funds supporting services and programs, innovative projects and training for individuals with disabilities and complex health care needs that might otherwise go unfulfilled.

Ticket Sales

Tickets typically go on sale one or two months before the event, in April or May.

Prior to the event, tickets may be purchased at a few local stores, online and by mail request.
On the day of the event, tickets can be purchased at any garden location.
