Spring is in the air, and so are a few bare cheeks.

Ahead of World Naked Gardening Day on May 3, LawnStarter dug into the data to uncover 2025’s Best Cities for Naked Gardening. These cities let you weed in the buff without getting tangled up in legal trouble.

To find the best places to let it all hang out among the hedges, we analyzed the 500 biggest U.S. cities using 11 revealing metrics, including nudist populations, public nudity laws, Google search interest, and even the forecast for World Naked Gardening Day.

After all, no one wants to garden au naturel in a downpour.

How did we strip down the data? Check out our full methodology.

Top 5 Cities for Naked Gardening

Ready to bare it all in the garden? Scroll through the slideshow below for a closer look at the top 5 cities where the sun shines, the soil’s rich, and some gardeners go green (and garment-free).

No. 1: Miami, FL | Overall Score: 71.04

Nude Gardener-Friendliness Rank: 1
Weather Forecast Rank: 292

Miami tops the list for nude gardening thanks to legal protections and ideal temps, but its weather rank dipped due to expected rain and higher wind speeds on May 3, 2025.

Local tips: Celebrate WNGD with like-minded gardeners at Sunsport Gardens Family Naturist Resort in Loxahatchee. Or visit Haulover Beach and check out the park’s flora. If you’re comfortable baring it all, you might want to book a cruise next year on the Big Nude Boat.
