This monthly tour will be held on the 3rd Sunday of each month (except for
June when it will be the 4th Sunday, June 22 - to avoid Father's
Day), with a
rotating schedule of gardens. Each garden will be open for one hour,
so the homeowner can go visit the other gardens. There is no charge
for this garden tour. Join us for one garden or all of them.
