A membership to Bridge Gardens is a great way to show your support for this beautiful public garden, open daily with free admission. The gardens are a wonderful part of our community and are providing a quiet place for exploration. Our demonstration vegetable garden, managed by Garden Director Rick Bogusch, is providing fresh food to the Sag Harbor Food Pantry.
And while we have limited in person workshops and cultural programs in response to the current COVID-19 outbreak, Rick along with Lawn Expert Paul Wagner and Community Gardener Justin Ruaysamran are finding new audiences online through video workshops from the garden with tips you can use at home. These can be found on our website, Instagram and Facebook.
And, you can now take a virtual tour of the gardens through TravelStorys!
To learn more about the history of the gardens, to take the virtual tour with TravelStorys, and find links to a variety of programs offered through Bridge Gardens, click here.
Join today to enjoy membership benefits through December 31st, 2022!
