U.S. Rep. Becca Balint, Vermont’s first LGBTQ member of Congress, is honored as one of USA TODAY’s Women of the Year.
HGTV just named the best garden in Vermont.
And this garden is less than 30 minutes away from Burlington, making for an easy outing/
The Home and Garden Television network named what they think is the best garden in every state in the United States and put them all in one list.
“We love gardens of all shapes and sizes (and know you do too!)” HGTV said. “And we just want to be sure you don’t miss any icons that could be right under your nose — or on your travel itinerary — when time is a finite resource.”
Here’s the Vermont garden HGTV called a must-visit.
Shelburne Museum
HGTV chose the Shelburne Museum because of its cultural value as a center for historical preservation as well as its green fields and diverse flora.
Here’s what HGTV said about it: “A collector’s paradise spread across 45 acres, where 39 historic buildings have been relocated to create a campus dedicated to American folk art and horticulture. The garden’s historic apple varieties preserve New England’s agricultural heritage.”
Shelburne Museum has several different gardens to explore, from the formal and vivid Bostwick Garden to the Circus Building Daylily Garden, where well over 1,000 daylilies in 38 varieties reside, the Shelburne Museum website said.
“Perennial and annual flower gardens, herb and heirloom vegetable gardens, and flowering fruit trees flourish through the fall,” the website said. “All year long, these inviting green spaces are favorite attractions for Museum visitors.”
Shelburne Museum can be found at 6000 Shelburne Road in Shelburne, Vermont.
