At each property\, visitors can expect to see incredible floral displays creatively fashioned by the garden club’s talented designers – a hallmark of this biennial event. \nWaterfront homes on tour include: \n\nWye House (a 17th century National Historic Landmark with an 18th century residence continuously occupied by 12 generations of the Lloyd family\, including a delegate to the Continental Congress\, Governor\, and U.S. and State Representatives);\nPlimhimmon (where Anna Maria Tilghman\, widow of Revolutionary War hero Lt. Col. Tench Tilghman\, entertained the Marquis de Lafayette); and\nEmerson Point (graciously set on the Miles River).\nThe spectacular grounds of Harleigh Farm (on Trippe Creek) will also welcome visitors.\n\nTours and a delicious lunch will be available at Third Haven Friends (Quaker) Meeting House (1684) in Easton. And visitors will be encouraged to tour Talbot Historical Society’s Gardens and Neall House (ca 1804). The gardens are designed and maintained by the garden club and Tour proceeds are earmarked to help with Neall House restoration.   \nTo add to the day’s experience\, visitors will be directed via exclusive audio tours to drive by and discover the many historic landmarks in Oxford and \nSt. Michaels\, towns that were influential in America’s Colonial Period. \nEarly Bird (reduced-price) Tour tickets at $40 are available now until 6 pm on January 31 at MHGP.org/talbotcounty. Regular-price tickets at $50 will remain available online until May 8. On the day of the event (May 9)\, tickets at $60 will be available at all sites. \nFor updated Talbot County Tour details\, visit MHGP.org or talbotcountygc.org \nAbout the Talbot County Garden Club \nThe Talbot County Garden Club is known for its “good and green works” that benefit the Talbot County community.
