Summit Avenue Garden Stroll & Tea

The Summit Avenue Garden Stroll is back and better than ever. Sunday, June 26th from 1-5 p.m., ticketholders are invited to enjoy one of our country’s most magnificent stretches of urban green spaces as well as walk into the back yards of select Summit Avenue mansions to see their magnificent gardens.

Twelve homeowners along Saint Paul’s historical Summit Avenue will open their gardens for the public to enjoy. Tickets cost $10 for the Summit Avenue Garden Stroll and $12 for the informal Garden Stroll Tea open throughout the afternoon, from 1-5 p.m. The informal “English” tea will be catered by the Golden Fig and held on the rose garden terrace of Mount Zion Temple, 1300 Summit Avenue. A master gardener will be at the tea to answer questions. Musical entertainment will be provided by International Fiddle Conspiracy. Twin Town Pedicabs will be available for service along Summit Avenue for those who wish to ride in style in between garden stops.
