Andover Garden Club Presents “Through the Garden Gate”

On Saturday, June 6, the Andover Garden Club will present “Through the Garden Gate,” a tour of seven beautiful private gardens in Andover—plus a couple of extras. The properties on the tour include two historic home sites, a pollinator paradise, and a clever solution to a challenging sloped yard.

The tour, to take place rain or shine, will run from 10:00 AM until 4:00 PM. Tickets cost $35 in advance or $40 on the day of the tour. Tickets may be purchased online at https://www.andovergardenclub.org/2026-garden-tour.

On tour day, attendees should present their email confirmation at either 31 Lowell Street or 10 Alonesos Way, both stops on the tour, to obtain their tour booklet, including map. Tickets may also be purchased at these sites by check or credit card.

Tour Extras—Shopping and a Bonus Garden

In conjunction with the tour, the Andover Garden Club is holding a Green Elephant sale, offering perennial plants and herbs; gardening supplies; gently used gardening tools; indoor and outdoor containers; and a few unexpected treasures. The sale will be held at 197 Haggetts Pond Road. While no ticket is required for the sale, tour tickets will be available there for purchase.

People are invited to extend the tour by visiting Henderson Garden, located at the junction of River Road and Chandler Road. The club created the garden in the early 2000s and tends it to this day.

The club is very grateful to the many generous organizations and individuals who are sponsoring the tour. For a complete listing, visit https://www.andovergardenclub.org/2026-garden-tour-sponsors.
