Castlegar Garden Club’s 2026 Garden Tour
June 21, 2026 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM
The Castlegar Garden Club is proud to present its 20th annual Garden Tour - “Where Stories Take Root.”
A literary Garden Tour involves choosing gardens inspired by books (like Secret Garden, Anne of Green Gables, Alice in Wonderland, etc.). This year, the goal of the Castlegar Garden Club is to create an immersive, educational and engaging experience for visitors, connecting the magic of stories with real plants and spaces.
Each garden has a story to share, and it has been a pleasure to meet our hosts and hear about their gardening journeys. We are pairing each garden with a book to invite visitors to reflect on the connection between the story and the garden space.
The Garden Tour Committee invites community members and visitors alike to explore seven local gardens, each with their own literary story booked themes.
A floral exhibition, snacks, and refreshments will also be provided, free of charge, at the Sandman Hotel, 944 Columbia Avenue, Castlegar, on June 21st, at 10:30 AM to 3:00 PM.
Members and children under 6 years of age are free. Tickets for community attendees are $20 per ticket. A wrist band is required by all garden visitors to enter the hosts gardens.
Tickets can be purchased at Kalawsky GM, 1700 Columbia Avenue, Castlegar: for cash only, Monday through Saturday, until 5:00 PM, starting June 10th. Tickets can also be purchased with cash or credit card at the Sandman Hotel on June 21, starting at 8:30 AM. Wrist bands are provided at time of purchase and can also be picked up by garden club members at these locations.
Included with each ticket is a brochure and map to guide you to each garden. Additionally, signage will be set up at various locations in the city and area to guide participants to the various garden host sites.
Proceeds from this garden club event go to the Castlegar Hospital Foundation. As we know, the Hospital Foundation supports the Urgent Care Facility at the Health Care Centre.
