Gardens at the Museum

Started by The Central Maine Garden Club in 2008, our gardens add a vibrant and inviting touch to the experience visiting the Redington Museum. A diverse selection of native plant species provides a peaceful setting where visitors can enjoy the seasonal blooms and quiet charm of Maine's natural flora. The gardens not only compliment the historic property but reflect our commitment to sustainability and providing a space for local pollinators.

Don't forget to visit the gardens during your visit, as they make every visit a little more special. They're perfect for a leisurely stroll before or after your visit or just a visit on their own.
