The gardens are in two courtyards within the former base chapel, now the Brunswick Naval Museum, 179 Admiral Fitch Ave., at Brunswick Landing. They are the only privately established memorial on an operating naval base, and are preserved and maintained by the museum, the Harpswell Garden Club, and the Brunswick Veterans Council. The gardens are open Wednesday and Sunday afternoons from 1-4 p.m.
