June 25, 10 a.m.–1 p.m. Audubon Park Garden Tour The Audubon Park Garden Club was founded in 1929 to promote the beauty of the surrounding area, including the easements and small parks, and to encourage gardening among its members. During the annual “Festival of the Dogwood” in April, the residents illuminate their yards and common areas. In 2002, the Club began holding garden tours to show the more private side of Audubon Park. Gardens range from formal to intimate, shade to sun, large to small, but all reflect the personal gardening tastes of the owners. Since all the gardens on the tour are within Audubon Park, many patrons choose to walk the approximately two-mile route.
