Supporting educational school gardens, local scholarships and community projects

If you were going to dream up the most magical location to have a garden tour it would probably include, romantic sea coves within a scalloped coastline, thousands of acres of protected wilderness, and topography that harkens the French Riviera. We have all that in this beautiful place that we call home, Laguna Beach. Home to the ideal Mediterranean climate, it is the perfect location for gorgeous gardens year round.

The 2023 Walking tour will be held on Saturday May 6th, from 10 am-4 pm, starting at the Laguna Beach County Water District. The buildings gorgeous “Mediterranean Revival” style building built in 1927 is now the permanent host venue for the Laguna Beach Garden Club Gate & Garden Tour. Luxury VIP Buses will transport you to the start of the tour where you will stroll through a masterfully curated set of gardens in local neighborhoods.

The festive event will offer artisanal margaritas and Mexican fare for sale, as well as free spectacular homemade baked goods and refreshments. In addition to being able to enjoy plein air painters in several gardens you can participate in a raffle of
prizes from local artists and businesses. Participants wearing festive garden party hats will be entered into the hat contest. It has become one of the most popular events in our town with multiple years of sold out attendance!

Our 2022 Gate & Garden Tour, held in May of 2022, netted more than $40,000 to help support educational gardens, student scholarships and community projects.
