So many sights and sounds to make note of - be sure to bring your camera!

But leave time, too, for finding a quiet spot in the garden to enjoy the luscious brunch. Enjoy a made-to-order omelet, fresh fruits, and an assortment of freshly baked breakfast breads.

Hosts: Marjorie & Rogers Penfield

The 2008 series of Secret Garden Parties are held at gardens that have never been open to visitors for our benefit before. All garden parties are fund-raising events and proceeds go directly to the University of Tennessee Gardens. All costs of events are borne by the hosts and sponsors, without whom these events would not be possible.

Reservations can be made by sending an order form by mail with check or by Pay Pal online at www.friendsoftheutgardens.org. Tickets are strictly limited in number.

Reservations are on a first-come, first-served basis and are not confirmed until payent is received. To safeguard the privacy of our hosts, only general locations of parties are mentioned in event descriptions. Written confirmation including tickets and driving directions will be sent to the person who makes the reservation. Out of respect for the generosity and commitments of our hosts, there can be no refunds.

In case of inclement weather, the final decision on holding or postponing the party will be that of the hosts. Up-to-the-minute information on the status of a party can be obtained by calling 865-525-4555. If an event is postponed, the hosts will notify all guests and announce the new date for the event.

$40 per person
