The event commemorates National Public Gardens Day, drawing attention to our nation's public gardens, which include botanical gardens, arboreta, conservatories, educational gardens and historical landscapes. The Fort Worth Botanic Garden offers 110 acres that include the historic Rose Garden, Fuller Garden, Japanese Garden and more.

Attendees are invited to bring their own lunch and blankets or lawn chairs, though some outdoor seating will be provided, and several food trucks will offer food for sale. Acoustic guitarist Victor Andrada will provide musical accompaniment, and Botanic Garden senior horticulturist Steve Huddleston will offer a free, guided walking tour from 12:30 to 1 p.m.
