National Public Gardens Day

National Public Gardens Day

May 12 2017 - 7:00am to 8:00pm

You can keep your National Pizza Day, your National Popcorn Day, your National Siblings Day — and whatever else you guys are cooking up for our calendars and social media feeds. We’re saving our frenzy for National Public Gardens Day — a holiday established in 2008 and held the Friday before Mother’s Day to recognize and celebrate public gardens worldwide. Of course, one of the Valley’s best-known gardens is making a day of it. The Desert Botanical Garden, 1201 North Galvin Parkway, invites the local anthophilous crowd to “help raise awareness of America’s public gardens and their important role in promoting environmental stewardship” from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on May 12. Participation is included with general admission, which is $24.95 for adults.
