Spring is in the air and with it comes one of the most beloved of Virginia events – Historic Virginia Garden Week.
With venues covering the state, Garden Week offers the general public a golden opportunity to enjoy the gardens and explore the interiors of historic homes and estates.
Many of these private residences are not often open to the public, so this is a treat not to be missed. Arrange your work schedule, Fly.com trip, dentist appointment, everything and anything else you might need to in order to visit these beautiful places. It is not every week that you can visit such immaculate gardens. People come from destinations far and wide so as to enjoy this opportunity.
