Commemoration Program

Endowment Fund

Be a part of the Garden’s Future. The Fund, established in 2019, is dedicated to the long-term sustainability of The Gardens’ operation in perpetuity. Once reaching its required principal amount any investment proceeds are channeled into the annual operating budget when and if needed. The integrity of the Fund is protected by strict IRS regulations which ensure its ongoing viability. A certificate acknowledging your donation will be provided.

Minimum contribution: $1,000

Picnic Table Dedication

What better way to pay tribute to a loved one, commemorate a life milestone, or honor a friend! Our picnic tables are placed in picturesque, shady areas of the garden. A metal plaque inscribed with your personalized message will be placed on the picnic table. Many celebrations and picnics will be enjoyed by all who visit the gardens.

Cost: $2500.

Garden Room Wish List

Our Gardens always have a long wish list, many listed in our monthly newsletter. It could be as little as used garden pots for the Garden Center up to a new building for our growing garden.

Be sure to check our newsletter or contact our Commemorative Director.

Arbor Day Remembrance

A perfect way to create a special remembrance of your friend or loved one. Arbor Day at the gardens is held each year on the 3rd Friday of January to coincide with Florida Arbor Day and is a time for renewal and that can be celebrated year after year. The name you will be honoring will be read at a special dedication at the gardens and is included on our website.

Cost: $30. Per Name

Serenity Garden

The Serenity Garden will offer a respite to visitors. This garden room is highlighted by a beautiful, peaceful and soothing fountain. The commemorative bricks create an interesting walkway.
