Johns Creek Beautification is pleased to announce the 2nd Annual Secret Gardens of Johns Creek Tour!  This year's collection of seven amazing home gardens will emphasize unusual and themed plant combinations and hardscapes. It will feature a pool deck surrounded by mature hardy tropicals, a Japanese inspired koi pond and Buddha meditation area, a magnificent expansive moss lawn surrounded by azaleas and hydrangeas, a unique outdoor stacked stone fireplace, a backyard with a series of stone pathways that will take you on a journey through a unique collection of shade and sun perennials, conifers, many native trees and shrubs, etc.  

Also we are pleased to be partnering with the Autrey Mill Nature Preserve as our premiere tour stop.  This unique City owned property includes miles of woodland trails, historic buildings, butterfly garden, animal exhibits, etc.  We look forward to once again highlighting wonderful musicians and artist for our visitors enjoyment and will have master gardeners present to answer your plant related questions.  All tour stops are conveniently located along the Old Alabama Road corridor, which should make it very easy for a relaxed visit to enjoy each unique property.

Passes for this event will be made available on-line beginning Wednesday, March 20, 2019.

The term "raising awareness" has entered into our everyday language. We are constantly being made aware of environmental issues, our habits and our vulnerabilities. While there are numerous worthy causes, our cause is simple: to drive to a beautiful, clean community that exudes pride and purpose... to a place we call home. 

Johns Creek Beautification is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that has been formed to enhance and preserve the natural beauty in our common areas and public spaces through landscape installations, environmental preservation and public works of art.

The beginnings of JCB took root prior to the creation of the city of Johns Creek with the Medlock Bridge Beautification Project on SR 141, which was executed under the stewardship of the Johns Creek Community Association (JCCA). Community and state leaders worked together with the JCCA to formalize plans and to secure and facilitate $100,000 in grants from the Fulton County Tree Fund, along with donations from local businesses, to ensure the successful installation of Phase I. 

Today, the JCB continues that tradition. We work closely with the City of Johns Creek to help secure grants for landscaping and beautification projects. In fact, JCB donations of $15,000 helped the city obtain more than $130,000 in grants to fund landscaping at Jones Bridge and Abbots Bridge and at States Bridge Road, Kimball Bridge as well as landscaping for the planned Kimball Bridge Multi-Use Trail project. 

Help us continue this return on investment. 

We believe that beauty, in its many forms, calms or ignites the soul. Our goal is to raise awareness in a different way…..to initiate projects and to be involved in establishing and maintaining a standard of living that contributes to the visual and physical comfort of the citizens and businesses of Johns Creek.
