Public Tour To Open Up The "Hidden Gardens of Lambertville"

LAMBERTVILLE, N.J. — Eight homeowners will open up their gardens for Kalmia Club’s 25th Annual Hidden Gardens of Lambertville Tour on Saturday, June 10 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., rain or shine.

Among the gorgeous and hidden garden gems being featured is a backyard oasis owned by Nancy and Jeff Campbell, an extension of their Queen Anne Revival home.

Their oasis features a meandering path through lush greenery and colorful blooms, a Jacuzzi, cozy gas fire pit area and an outdoor kitchen under a pergola. Truly peaceful and definitely party-perfect.
