ABOUT THE TOUR
Naples Garden Club 57th Annual Tour will be Held February 4, 2012
This extraordinary and exciting community event attracts hundreds of visitors to view homes in Port Royal, Aqualane Shores and Old Naples. Proceeds from the Tour are used to provide scholarships for students studying botany and horticulture at FGCU’s Harvey Kapnick Education and Research Center at the Naples Botanical Garden. We also provide financial support to organizations such as Habitat for Humanity, the Conservancy of SW Florida and Naples Botanical Garden for community beautification projects. Over the years, our club has donated more than $600,000 to the community.
House & Garden Tour a Great Success!
Many thanks to our homeowners, sponsors, patrons, guests, and of course our members who put in many thousands of hours of work.
Our major fundraising effort, the Naples House & Garden serves several purposes: showcasing Naples homes and gardens, embracing the community, displaying the creativity and talent of our members that adorn each house but most importantly raising funds to further the Club’s goals.

What a day! The 2011 House & Garden Tour was magnificent, starting with the weather. It seems that we were covered from two directions, one by the sincere appeal from our own Beth Bacon and number two, the buried gin bottle. Our hospitality room was not only beautifully appointed but gloriously laden with all manner of delicious refreshments and snacks that served our ticket holders from the first tour of the morning to the last buses in the afternoon. Our homes were perfect, in part, thanks to the beautiful floral arrangements, each perfectly suited to their places of honor.
Thanks to our beautiful house hostesses who cared for “their” homes with grace and style and lastly to our equally beautiful bus hostesses, who as the face of NGC,… Read More
