Through the Garden Gate: Hogg’s Hollow

One of Toronto’s largest tours of private gardens. Garden-goers will have the opportunity to visit 14 residential gardens, of varying sizes and themes in the unique Toronto enclave of Hogg’s Hollow. The self-guided format lets participants discover the gardens at their own pace following a printed guide and map. In addition, a comprehensive digital guide is provided with full descriptions of the featured gardens, historical and touring tips, neighbourhood recommendations, and more. A complimentary shuttle bus service is available for participants to “hop on and hop off” along the route, which is also very walkable. Garden seekers will also have a chance to ask questions and learn something too! Knowledgeable Toronto Master Gardeners will be stationed in each garden and are happy to answer plant and garden design questions. All proceeds from the tour support the Toronto Botanical Garden.

This outdoor event can be enjoyed solo or with family and friends, strolling along the tree-lined streets, while skipping in and out of gardens. Come early or linger after the tour to shop or dine at one of the local restaurants in the area.
