Maine Points: Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens

Danny speaks with Katie Hey, Marketing and Communications Director at Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens. The mission of Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens is to inspire meaningful connections between people and nature and promote plant conservation through horticulture, education, and plant science.

We discuss this year’s Garden’s Aglow! Experience Nature in Motion at Gardens Aglow and see the Gardens come alive after dark! New England’s premier light show transforms the landscape into a glowing journey through scenes depicting the flora and fauna of Maine’s forests, shorelines, and meadows.
