Explore Beautiful Gardens and Celebrate at our After Party—All While Supporting a Great Cause
Revisit this page in 2026 for more information on our next annual garden tour.
You are invited to our first annual fundraising event for CO-Create Erie, a new makerspace coming to Erie in early 2026 at Schofield Farm Open Space, located at 2203 North 111th Street. Ticket sales, donations and sponsorships from this event will help our organization get off the ground with the biggest impact by funding the purchase of tools, furnishings, supplies and equipment. Erie’s community and arts culture is evolving, and with regional support, we can help shape it into a place that celebrates beauty, sustainability, and connection.
The Garden Tour celebrates homeowners who are creating spaces that enhance our town’s character through:
• Sustainable landscaping practices appropriate for Colorado’s climate
• Creative outdoor environments that build neighborhood connections
• Native plantings that support local ecosystems
• Innovative garden solutions that inspire other residents
Enjoy a leisurely day exploring some spectacular gardens in and around Erie and watch plein air artists painting the gardens, followed by a late afternoon sunset celebration with music, small bites, wine and refreshments, and a silent auction, including an opportunity to bid on a hot air balloon ride, plein air garden art or a custom, handmade, tailored men’s shirt. Don’t miss out on the fun day, while helping a great cause!
