‘Gardens Aglow’ In Boothbay Is A Go This Year As A Drive-Thru

I was actually just wondering the other day whether this dazzling Maine holiday tradition would be happening or not this year.

The very popular 'Gardens Aglow' celebration at Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens in Boothbay will go on.

However, we will be staying in our vehicles as we get in the Christmas spirit.

Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens is a magical place to visit in the summertime. They have the biggest variety of plants and flowers I've ever seen, in gardens that display a rainbow of of color. I dream of having a yard this beautiful someday. Sigh.

It's also fun to stroll on the stone paths and cross a walking bridge to visit the froggies in the ponds. The peacefulness of this fantastic destination is exhilarating.

A few years ago, the good folks at Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens came up with a plan for fun in the cold weather months.

They host an incredible array of vivid lights in late November through the beginning of the New Year.

Hopefully we'll have some snow on the ground by then so the lights sparkle even more.

According to a post on their official Facebook page, 'Gardens Aglow' will be enjoyed by visitors a drive-thru for their 6th season.

No admission to the event will be available onsite. Tickets must be purchased in advance on their website.

Admission is just $40 per car. So get your car a ticket now for holiday family fun. November will be here before you know it.
