McMinnville Garden Club’s 23rd Annual Tour
A Showcase of Area Homeowners’ Beautiful Gardens
The McMinnville Garden Club is proud to announce its 23rd Annual Garden Tour, featuring some of the most stunning and well-kept gardens in the area. This year’s event will highlight the hard work and dedication of five local homeowners who have transformed their outdoor spaces into breathtaking displays of natural beauty.
Each garden on the tour will offer visitors a unique and inspiring experience, showcasing a variety of plants, flowers, and landscaping designs. The tour is not only an opportunity for gardening enthusiasts to gather ideas and inspiration for their own outdoor spaces but also serves as a celebration of the community’s horticultural talent.
Visitors will have the chance to engage with homeowners, learn about their gardening techniques, and gain valuable insights into creating and maintaining beautiful gardens. The event promises to be a delightful experience for all attendees, whether they are seasoned gardeners or simply appreciate the beauty of nature.

why are we excited to host the tour & Faire?
The annual Garden Tour and Faire are our main fundraisers. In 2023 we were able to award more than $3,000 in scholarships to students throughout Yamhill County. Please read more our Horticultural Scholarship Program and encourage any local college-aged students you know who are interested in this area of study to apply.
In addition to our scholarship program, we support various horticultural and beautification projects. These include maintenance of garden plantings:
- Along Historic Third Street
- At the McMinnville Post Office
- The West End Entry Garden on Highway 99W across from the bowling alley, and
- The Serenity Garden at the Willamette Valley Medical Center, our newest project.
