Got a large yard that is an acre or more? No? Then this is the garden tour for you. The 7th annual master gardener tour focuses on ideas for smaller lots, urban gardening and landscaping.
This year’s self-guided tour includes a wide range of garden styles and techniques, all located within a convenient driving route. This is a learning garden tour. The master gardener homeowners and other master gardeners will be on site all day to respond to your questions.
Learn more about shade gardening, how to attract beneficial insects and pollinators, basics of veggie gardening, composting, using hops for beer making, how to design and build a rain garden, raised beds and container gardening, and much more. And you can visit our Garden Shed where you will find one-of-a-kind garden art, books, and more.
