Tarbin Gardens
Plan Your Visit
Tarbin Gardens is a hand-built, five-acre touring garden. English landscape gardens encapsulate a lifetime collection of plants; complete with greenhouses, ponds and animals. A great place for a day out with friends, family or yourself with fun for all ages. This is a peaceful place, great for a date or to catch up, with unique photograph opportunities for amateur and professional. A place to refresh and escape with all the inspiration and information a gardener could need. A true garden venue for weddings, groups and events.
We hope to see you soon!

Bring your camera, a book, easel, a friend or yourself!
We are handicap accessible, some gardens cannot be entered but all can be viewed.
When you arrive, park in our parking lot and walk to the left of our Waterfall Pond to our entrance sign. From there, walk up to our Admission Gate and Restrooms to start your visit. Gardens take one hour to walk through, more for a full experience. We have benches placed throughout the gardens, restrooms and cold bottled water at the entrance. It is a good idea to bring bug spray in May and June and a hat in July. We provide you with a map and you lead yourself to get lost! Gardens are signed and do not require a map to tour.
You are welcome to bring your own picnic. Spread out with a blanket on one of our lawns, relax on a bench surrounded by flowers or take a seat in our Gingerbread Terrace or Tea Garden with patio chairs, tables and umbrellas. Items may be left in the car until lunch time. No alcohol without permission. Call ahead if you would like to reserve tables for more than six people.
Ideal place for kids to learn and have fun! More plants than they’ve ever seen in New Hampshire with butterflies to chase, frogs and squirrels to watch, cats that roam the gardens, a cockatoo in our aviary, goats, rabbits and chickens in our barnyard.
Children must be supervised at all times.
