about

Pushing Up Daisies returns May 9, 2026, celebrating the gardens, growers, and grassroots spirit that make East Atlanta special. This community event brings neighbors together to explore local gardens, enjoy live music, visit local vendors, and experience one of the neighborhood’s most unique historic spaces.

Your ticket includes access to the garden tour beginning at 11 AM, with the full map shared on the day of the event. Live bands and vendors will be at Historic Sylvester Cemetery, with music starting at 3:00 PM. Follow along for updates on featured gardens, the event schedule, and more.

At the heart of the event is Historic Sylvester Cemetery, a 13 acre landscape that holds more than 1,400 lives and nearly two centuries of East Atlanta history. Presented through a partnership led by EACA with the Historic Sylvester Cemetery Foundation, Pushing Up Daisies helps raise awareness and support for the ongoing work needed to preserve and protect this important community space.
