Explore a mix of beautiful and functional private and public landscapes during the Fourth Annual Newton Pollinator Garden Tour taking place on Saturday, September 19, 2026, from 12 noon to 4:00 pm, with a rain date the following weekend, Saturday, September 26, same time. Focused on gardens showcasing mostly native plants across several Newton villages, this self-paced tour will demonstrate how native flora can beautifully sustain vital local pollinators. Organized by the Newton Community Pollinator Project in conjunction with Newton Conservators, the Newton Parks and Recreation Department, Green Newton, Friends of Cold Spring Park, Friends of Wellington Park, and Mothers Out Front Newton, the event is free, but preregistration is requested so that garden maps and info can be emailed to participants in advance. As of September 1st, we are still finalizing the garden list and the map of gardens. Watch for further details as the date gets closer.
