SUMMARY:Encore Garden Walk: Boerner — Yesterday and Today
DESCRIPTION:Back by popular demand! We first offered this walk earlier in the season\, and it was such a hit that visitors asked us to bring it back. \nJoin us for a leisurely stroll through the history of the Gardens — from the early days all the way to the present. Learn how Boerner Botanical Gardens grew into the beloved Milwaukee County landmark it is today. \nPlease note: Our Wednesday Walk series normally takes place on Wednesdays\, but this encore walk is on a Tuesday. Mark your calendar so you don’t miss it! \nWalks last 60–90 minutes. Registration is not required — just meet us in the Education & Visitor Center Atrium. A $5 donation is suggested and benefits the Friends of Boerner Botanical Gardens. Check our Facebook page and website for updates if inclement weather is expected.

SUMMARY:Special Margie's Garden Tour
DESCRIPTION:Meet in the Education & Visitor Center lobby. \nTucked inside Boerner Botanical Gardens is a whimsical\, all-accessible children’s garden unlike any other — Margie’s Garden. Wander winding paths past larger-than-life flowers and garden creatures\, climb into the giant bird’s nest\, explore the enchanted village\, sing the ABCs in the alphabet garden\, and play the sound makers in the pollinator garden. It’s a place for kids and families to leave the screens behind\, get outside\, and “dig in the dirt.” \nJoin us for a special guided tour to hear the heartfelt story behind the garden — created by the Kezman family in loving memory of Margaret “Margie” Kezman\, whose passion for family\, children\, and gardening lives on in every winding path — plus a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to keep this beloved space blooming. The tour lasts about an hour. \nWhy Your Visit Matters \nMargie’s Garden receives no funding from Milwaukee County or Boerner admission — it’s cared for entirely through the generosity of donors. Admission to the tour is free\, and a $5 donation to Margie’s Smile is encouraged\, with 100% going toward the garden’s care so it can keep making children smile for generations to come. \nHosted by Bluemel’s Garden & Landscape Center. \nPlease note: no dogs except service dogs are permitted.
