This summer, the charm of Ludlow will be in full bloom as the Ludlow Historic Society invites residents and visitors alike to experience a day of inspiration, connection, and local pride.

The Garden & Business Walk will take place on Saturday, June 20, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., offering a unique opportunity to explore the heart of this vibrant river town.

Featuring twelve distinctive gardens, the tour highlights the creativity and passion of Ludlow homeowners. From thoughtfully designed small-space gardens to expansive landscapes complete with in-ground pools, each stop offers something new to admire. Several vegetable gardens will also be beautifully showcased, demonstrating how residents are cultivating both beauty and sustainability in their own backyards.

More than just a visual experience, the event is a chance to connect with neighbors. Homeowners will be on hand to share stories, gardening tips, and the inspiration behind their outdoor spaces—making this a welcoming and personal tour for guests of all interests.

In addition to the gardens, attendees are encouraged to stroll through Ludlow’s business district. Local restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and even the town’s distillery will be open and ready to welcome visitors. Whether you’re stopping for lunch, enjoying a refreshing drink, or browsing unique shops, the day offers plenty of ways to support local businesses.
