Living Memorial Gardens

The City of Tega Cay’s Living Memorial Gardens is a beautiful public garden displaying seasonal flowers, foliage and trees along its meandering sidewalks and natural pathways. It is designed to be accessible by all who visit. The Gardens were brought to life by the Beautification Committee of Tega Cay with the support of the City of Tega Cay, volunteers and donors.

There are several gardens including the Children's Rock Garden donated by Elaine and Ralph Norman, the Herb Garden donated by Carolinas Medical Center - Pineveille, the Noah Mayberry Butterfly Garden donated by Team Noah, the Rose Garden donated by Marie and Jake Jakiel, the Shade Garden donated by Alice Holloway, the Rain Garden donated by Mr. & Mrs. Chad Bloodworth, and the Veterans Memorial Garden. The Gardens are also a place where persons, organizations, First Responders and U.S. Veterans have a place to be honored and memorialized.
