We went for the Summer Live Music series and it was absolutely wonderful! So my experience is based…read moreon that specifically... we got there at 5:30 and finding parking was a little hard, but they rent out the church parking next door so I was able to find parking there! Otherwise you just do street parking and it's not too bad. But it does get busy as a fair warning! With the music series specifically, it's $18 to get in but you get a free drink with it. So I would say it's worth it. And the drinks were actually pretty cheap anyways! We all shared a bottle of wine for $25. Not bad. And there are some great food vendors! We got nachos and they were insanely good and huge. I also got a donut from Runaway Bake Shop. I love that they partner with local restaurants and what not. But let's talk about Hillside specifically. It was so cute. Lots of tables. Much bigger than you'd think at first glance. We wandered around and loved all the fun areas. The decor is cute, the vibe is great, and I loved the green vine arch. I'd love to come back to maybe go look at what they're selling! Maybe try the coffee shop even? But I think this is a great spot and this will become my Wednesday routine for sure!

I finally made it to Hillside Gardens and will make sure my next visit will follow soon after…read more I have followed their social media for quite some time and knew they had concerts in the summer, a coffee shop and bar, and they sold plants during the day. I visited on a weekend and had a good time checking out the property in general, going to the indoor plant dome, and then checking out the greenhouse. I talked to Donna and she was so pleasant, offered help and told me I can always come back with questions since I want to start my own garden this year.
