Virginia’s historic garden week in April 2003 will feature homes and gardens enjoyed by families of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson as well other prominent Virginians.
Tours are sponsored by the Garden Club of Virginia to benefit the restoration of historic gardens throughout the state.
More than 250 outstanding private homes, gardens and historic landmarks spanning four centuries will be featured on three dozen different tours in the state from April 20-27.
The garden week event, which is celebrating its 70th year, is the oldest and largest statewide house and garden tour event in the nation.
Beginning in February, a comprehensive 220-page guidebook may be obtained by sending a $5 donation payable to Historic Garden Week, 12 E. Franklin Street, Richmond, Va 23219.
