In the Garden

OCTOBER 26 – Come walk with us as we explore the unique histories of the trees of Monticello and how they fit into the wider Virginia ecosystem.

As Jefferson put it, "Spring" makes "a paradise of our country." Join us as we talk about early spring blooms and two of Jefferson's granddaughters who helped him in the garden.

The crew from Gardens and Grounds here discusses Monticello's modern, historic, and unrealized greenhouses, and share tips and techniques for caring for your plants during the winter.

Bring heirloom seed varieties from Monticello’s Center for Historic Plants to your garden and yard. Shop our online catalog, or visit the Shop at Monticello in person, for a wide variety of flowers, fruits, and vegetable seeds.
