According to Garden Tour Chair Alice Calhoun, the gardens on the 2022 Garden Tour are unique: “We have a many new gardens among both the town and country gardens. Town Tour gardens often are either lovely cottage gardens hidden behind historic homes or river-view gardens. This year they will include two traditional four-square gardens. Country Tour estate gardens tend to be much larger than Town Tour gardens and have different elements and features.” Calhoun continues, “To get an overview of the beauty of Hermann’s gardens, visit www.hermanngardentours.com, our website. There you will see gardens that have been on previous tours. And you will be amazed.”
Hermann, named “the most beautiful city in Missouri” and a Missouri DREAM city, has many wineries, over 60 bed and breakfasts inns, many antique and specialty shops, and galleries. And there are excellent eateries. Plan to spend the night and spread the tour over both days.
Garden Club Co-Presidents Elise Bellefontaine and Mary Fritz urge local people to support these events since “Funds raised at the Garden Tour are used for civic beautification and scholarships for local students.” One of the newest projects is the Tree Project to which the Hermann Garden Club contributed $5000 to plant trees in Lower City Park. They continue, "If you are interested in joining the Club, please contact us through our website.”
