Here’s how it works…


 

Take The Self-Guided Tour

  • Pick up an Official Great Gay Garden Tour Map at any of the participating Fire Island Pines retailers or by ordering one here.

  • In your own time, find your way to each of the participating gardens marked on the map.

  • Some gardens are indicated with a green garden tag. Point your smart phone camera at the tag and your phone will open a page giving you more information on that garden including an audio tour, photos, a history and brief description.

  • By participating in The Great Gay Garden Tour you are agreeing to abide by local law, common courtesy, and the Rules of The Great Garden Tour.

 

Participating Gardens

  • All gardens are welcome. Gardeners and gardens of all styles and levels are welcome to participate. Flower gardens are great but so are sculpture gardens, rockeries, ruins, and natural landscapes!

  • Contact us to let us know you are interested in participating.

  • We will schedule a quick visit to your garden to explain how it works and set up your garden’s tour page.

  • We will provide a green garden tag that you can affix to your fence or front gate. This tag identifies your garden as a participant and allows visitors to learn more about your garden.

  • All participating gardeners are invited to attend the Garden Party to meet other gardeners and community members.
