Fair Oaks, which is located in the heart of the historic district on Kennesaw Avenue, was built in 1850, and is on the National Register of Historic Places. This priceless structure is one of the only places of its age in Marietta open to the public. Not only is Fair Oaks a historic treasure, it is an important site for educating the public on horticulture, conservation, and civic beautification.  Fair Oaks was incorporated as the Marietta Educational Garden Center, Inc. in 1967, as a 501(c)(3) non-profit. We rely on donations to maintain this beautiful structure and to carry out our mission which is to promote the love of gardening; to promote the study of horticulture; to protect our native trees, wildflowers and birds; and to encourage civic beautification and environmental responsibility.

Will you help preserve Fair Oaks and its important programs that directly impact our community and future generations?”
