Public Garden Day, also known as National Public Gardens Day, is celebrated annually on the Friday before Mother’s Day in the United States. In 2025, it falls on May 9. This day highlights the importance of botanic gardens, arboreta, and public gardens, encouraging people to visit and appreciate these beautiful spaces.

The American Public Gardens Association (APGA) organizes Go Public Gardens Days, which runs from May 9–18, 2025. During this period, gardens across the country host events, including a photo scavenger hunt with daily themes like Spring Blooms, Migratory Birds, Butterflies, and Busy Bees.

Public gardens play a crucial role in plant conservation, water conservation, green space preservation, and home gardening. Spending time in nature has been shown to reduce stress, improve emotions, and lower blood pressure.🌿😊
