Make A Donation

Your donation to the Historic Gardens makes a direct and meaningful difference. As a not-for-profit organization, we rely on the generosity of our community to help maintain and improve the grounds that so many people love. Every contribution — no matter the size — goes toward ensuring that this special place continues to thrive for visitors, members, and future generations alike. We are deeply grateful for your support.

Support our Work

Your donations will help the Gardens continue to flourish as a place of learning, and as an incredible paradise of peace and beauty for the enjoyment of all!

Foster an Oasis

Your donations help create an oasis not just for humans, but also for birds, bees and butterflies. Visitors enjoy the opportunity to see all of Mother Nature’s gifts in this beautiful garden surrounding.

Sustain for the Future

It is truly heartwarming to see visitors from every generation enjoying time together in the Gardens. Children love exploring with one of our themed scavenger hunts, and are enchanted by the Faerie Houses.

We Are A Registered Charity

The Annapolis Royal Historic Gardens Society is a registered charity whose purpose is stewardship of these Seventeen Acres of Paradise. Without the charitable donations we receive every year, the Gardens could simply not exist. We encourage you to support the Society in this important work to help to ensure the Gardens continue to blossom for future generations. In addition to the year end tax benefit, a donation to the Gardens can also make a very meaningful gift for a loved one.

Please consider a donation today!
