For more than two decades, hundreds of garden enthusiasts have descended upon Downtown Frederick for the chance to explore the elegant, whimsical and inventive gardens nestled behind the gates of private Frederick homes each spring.

A favorite of residents and visitors alike, the Beyond the Garden Gates Garden Tour continues to grow in size and attendance. The annual tour has grown to draw over 800 visitors annually and has raised thousands of dollars for local garden clubs and multiple beautification projects around Frederick.

In addition to the the stunning landscapes, visitors are also treated to a variety of discounts from downtown Frederick retailers and restauranteurs, as well as a Hospitality Center sponsored by ACNB Bank where guests are invited to refresh themselves during the tour.

This year, Celebrate Frederick is pleased to be working with the The Garden Club of Frederick.

Tickets are $25 in advance and $30 on tour days.
