Rain or shine, the Mill Hill Garden Tour takes place Saturday, June 9, from noon to 5 p.m. Visitors collect a tour map at Artworks before taking a scenic stroll through the historic Mill Hill neighborhood, where verdant gardens make the most of minimal space. After the walking tour, guests can use their tickets to visit the nearly 300-year-old William Trent House.

Tucked alongside the Assunpink Creek, Trenton’s Mill Hill neighborhood houses brick-faced 19th century homes and their lush gardens within a cozy 10-block area. For more than 200 years, residents of the historic neighborhood have taken pride in cultivating their scenic community. Each year, local homeowners open up their yards so that visitors can peek into their diminutive urban gardens. The scenic tour drew the attention of CBS Philadelphia, which wrote that “between and behind these historic homes, you’ll discover some of the Delaware Valley’s most cleverly designed compact gardens.”
