Since its inception in 2011, the Colorado Springs Garden Tour has showcased private gardens in neighborhoods such as Patty Jewett, Village Seven, University Park, The Broadmoor and more. Every year, the tour receives high acclaim from attendees and garden owners alike.
In conjunction with the city’s sesquicentennial celebration, this year’s tour, July 17-18, incorporates beautiful gardens at historical homes in the Old North End.
On July 31, 1871, during remarks before driving the first stake of the new town, Gen. Robert Alexander Cameron envisioned a city that would “blossom into gardens of beauty.” This year’s featured gardens demonstrate how that vision has been fulfilled.
