Master Gardener 2023 Garden Tour

Northern Nevada Garden tour by Rail City Garden Center with proceeds to help support UNR Extension, Washoe County Master Gardeners.

Rail City Garden Center is offering community members the opportunity to tour residential gardens in Reno and Sparks as part of the 2023 Northern Nevada Garden Tour with proceeds to benefit the University of Nevada Reno Extension, Washoe County Master Gardener Volunteer program. This family-friendly event will take place on Saturday, August 26th from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and on Sunday, August 27th from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Tour-goers will be astounded at what fellow high-desert gardeners have created, and they will walk away with inspiration and ideas from the successful Nevada gardeners and do-it-yourselfers. There will be all types of gardens from vegetable, flower, mixtures of both, low water use/xeriscape and in all stages of establishment from new to well-established.

The tour is self-paced, and participants are able to visit as many of the featured gardens as they like. Tickets are good for both days.

Cost is $25 for one person, $35 for two, and children under 12 are free. Tour booklets and wristbands are available to be picked up at Rail City Garden Center – proof of order confirmation must be provided at the time of pick up. All proceeds support the Master Gardeners Volunteer Program in Washoe County, which provides research-based horticulture information and programs to the community,
