Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens’ Maine Days, generously sponsored by Renys, welcomes Maine residents to visit the Gardens at no cost over Memorial Day Weekend, May 28, 29 and 30.

Founded by Maine residents with a passion for gardens and the state’s magnificent coast and forests, the Gardens is comprised of cultivated, formal gardens and natural landscapes that highlight natural history, habitats, botany, horticulture, and ecological connections while honoring Maine and its people. Endeavoring to make the Gardens as accessible, inclusive, and relevant to the community as possible, each year during Maine Days, Maine residents are invited to experience “their gardens” at no cost. Long a family tradition for many, this year’s event takes place thanks to Renys, another Maine institution. Speaking of institutions, Maine Days is a wonderful way to visit (or revisit) the Gardens’ larger-than-life environmental stewards, the giant trolls, here for their second season.

Maine Days is free and open to each resident in the state of Maine. Advance registration for this very popular event is required. Visit MaineGardens.org for tickets. Interested Maine residents should choose “Maine Day” tickets and note that the tickets are rain or shine. Make a day of it on the Boothbay peninsula and carpool with other Maine friends and family.
