Founded in 1952, the Essex Garden Club enters its 75th year in 2026. As a historic river town, Essex has long valued beauty, stewardship, and community. Our gardens, like our town, tell stories shaped over time by care, continuity, and shared purpose.
The 2026 Hidden Gardens Tour kicks off this milestone year, inviting the community to celebrate the places and people that continue to make Essex special.
