MERCER COUNTY, NJ — Trenton's Old Mill Hill Society is hosting the annual hidden gardens tour this Saturday, 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. The Garden Tour is an annual Mill Hill event that showcases a variety of home architectural styles, sizes and ages. Approximately 300 people from the region are expected to attend Mill Hill's Garden Tour, organizers said. The tour is organized by the Old Mill Hill Society and the residents of the neighborhood. "The Garden Tour is an opportunity to connect with neighbors and visitors who have a love for gardening, architecture, history, or just being outside," Liesl Schubel, co-chair of the 2022 Garden Tour Committee said in a statement. "I love to see the creativity of my neighbors on the tour, and am inspired by their openness in sharing these sanctuary spaces." The Garden Tour plays an important role in the restoration of the neighborhood. Money raised from the event funds historic preservation grants that assist in maintaining the landmark standards. "In addition to showing off some of the most interesting gardens in the area, the Tour gives visitors an opportunity to get a relaxed 'behind the scenes' look at Mill Hill and some different angles of our historic houses. It's also a great opportunity for Trenton neighbors to re-connect," said Old Mill Hill Society President Tom Griffith. Tickets are priced at $20 and are available online at www.TrentonMillHill.org or on the day-of at Artworks. Artworks is located at 19 Everett Alley, Trenton, NJ 08611. Have a correction or news tip?
