Executive Director
CurrentBath, Georgia, just outside of Augusta, was a resort community in the late 1800's and early 1900's with such notable visitors as President William Howard Taft and John D. Rockefeller. Long gone are the summer homes built by wealthy planters to escape the heat of the summer in the nearby cities. But what does exist is a garden and natural springs fed pools built in the 1960s by Alonzo Plumb Boardman, Sr. “Lonnie.” What was once a jungle is now a reclaimed piece of heaven open to the public for enjoying nature, weddings, photo shoots, special events, corporate retreats, garden clubs, family reunions, picnics and other gatherings.Bathgardens.com
