Saturday July 19th, Alford’s English Gardens presents a self guided tour of local gardens. We have selected a variety of gardens and paired them with the original art of a variety of local artists and mediums.

The self-guided tour starts in Seal Beach and you work your way over to the Bixby Knolls/Los Cerritos are of Long Beach. On the way you will visit 7 homes and the school’s gardens and orchard. There will be additional art, garden decor, demonstrations, and fun at the school. See you in the garden!
