There’s always something special going on at Rockledge Gardens!

April 2021 – All Month Long!

April is Earth Month in the Gardens!

Rather than a single day celebration for Earth Day, Rockledge Gardens has committed to a month-long recognition of the importance of being good stewards of our planet. Each Saturday in April we are hosting a different local organization working towards building a more sustainable future here in Brevard. Come meet these organizations from 10-1 each Saturday in April–or tune in to our social media around 10:30 on Saturday mornings for a 5-10 minute livestream to learn about the impact these organizations are having on our environment. Plus! Look out for a spotlight on plants that are native to Florida each week in April on our blog!

Sunday, April 18th at 1PM. 

Discussion Panel: Ask an Arborist. 

What is the best tree to buy for my yard? When is the best time to plant a tree? How do I maintain my tree? Join Rockledge Gardens Info Specialist, Steve, and Simon and Karre Stratford, owners of Stratford Tree Surgery, in a webinar panel discussing everything you need to know about trees. Tune in via Zoom! All proceeds go to California Wildfire Relief.

Reserve your spot here.
