About the Tour

Spring is on its way and plans for the 28th Annual Gardens of Uxbridge Tour are underway!

Each summer up to 8 local private resident gardens are opened to the public in support of community projects led by the Lucy Maud Montgomery Society of Ontario. Uxbridge Township is home to the Lucy Maud Montgomery National Historic Site.

The Gardens of Uxbridge Tour provides a brilliant showcase of the wonderful gardens of local residences in and around Uxbridge Township and offers a beautiful day of touring the countryside surrounding the spectacular Oak Ridges Moraine.  The self-guided tour (with driving maps provided) takes visitors through hill and dale along the country roads surrounding the quaint town of Uxbridge and also features a number of in-town gardens in the town of Uxbridge.

Garden guests are invited to walk around the gardens outside of each home on the Tour between 10:00 am and 5:00 pm, rain or shine. Volunteers greet you at each home and provide an overview of what you’ll find beyond the garden gate. There are typically 8 gardens on the tour each year, to allow ample time for touring the back roads and enjoying a delicious lunch in the heritage town of Uxbridge.

Gather some friends for a day of touring and dining! Purchase tickets as a Mother’s Day or Father’s Day gift, or simply gather great gardening ideas from those you meet along the way. The Gardens of Uxbridge Tour is a popular way to spend a summer’s day in the countryside north of Toronto.

Tour Date is Saturday, June 15, 2024. Ticket sales begin online via this web site in April with a limited number available.
