April is National Garden Month. Did you know that taking care of plants does something for us? Studies show that gardening can improve our attitudes towards health and nutrition, give us better focus, and build community spirit. Besides, gardens are beautiful, and who doesn’t like that? As Walt Whitman wrote: “Give me odorous at sunrise a garden of beautiful flowers where I can walk undisturbed.”
Here are some inns that provide just that.
