Celebrate National Public Gardens Day

Botanical gardens, arboretums, and other public green spaces can be great places to learn about new plants and get landscaping ideas for your yard. National Public Gardens Day is a great opportunity to visit your favorite -- or discover a new one.

National Public Gardens Day, which is the Friday before Mother's Day, is a day of awareness inviting communities across North America to visit and learn about the important role that public gardens play in our lives.

May 11, 2012, the next National Public Gardens Day, is an ideal time to get out and enjoy the beautiful display at your local botanical garden or arboretum and lean about its impact on your community.

For example, many gardens conduct research and aid in the discovery of new plant species or the creation of new plant varieties. Your local garden may also play a valuable role in helping to protect endangered plants. Or it may offer outreach programs that allow you to take classes about gardening, landscaping, or other topics.

To obtain the voucher go to nationalpublicgardensday.org. At the bottom of the page you will find a link below where it says twitter@NPGD. The link will take you to the bhg site. You will be asked for your name, address and number of people in your party and will then take you to the page with the voucher. Hope this helps.

Please someone share where the Voucher for 2012 Gardens Day is located - found a sample of the voucher, but not the actual one needed for free admission. We have a group planning on attending at Callaway Gardens in Ga, but need vouchers.
