We, along with other gardens around the country who are part of the American Public Gardens Association, raise awareness about the importance of gardens during National Public Gardens Week.

Our favorite way to celebrate National Public Gardens Weeks is, of course, with an in-person visit from you to our Garden, but since that isn’t possible right now, we’re bringing the Garden to you. Why not use a custom virtual Zoom background in your next meeting to show your love of gardens and to highlight the importance of gardens in our lives. We’re bringing you a Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden Zoom background gallery to kick off National Public Gardens Week.
