Capen Garden Walk Annual Garden Walk in mid July to showcase gardens in the University District and neighborhoods surrounding the South campus of the University at Buffalo.

Semi annual Plant and Seed Exchange
Christine Brooks Garden Grant The Samuel P. Capen Garden Walk, started in 2002 with 24 gardens and was named to honor the first salaried Chancellor of the University at Buffalo. This annual event showcases gardens in the neighborhoods surrounding the University’s South Campus, including the University District of Buffalo, Eggertsville, Amherst and the Town of Tonawanda. Capen Garden Walk is designed to encourage neighborhood beautification, collaboration and to build strong communities.

2022 marks the 21th year of the Samuel P. Capen Garden Walk, a free self-guided tour of more than 70 private gardens and carefully nurtured public spaces. Our Walk is scheduled annually in mid July. We also sponsor Spring and Fall Plant and Seed Exchanges. The Christine H. Brooks Garden Grant is awarded to new and experienced gardeners to start or enhance a garden bed which is visible to the public.
