I am resting today, our garden beds were on the Rochester Garden Club Annual Garden Tour this weekend! It has been fun getting ready for it since spring but am thankful I have a normal city size lot which limits my garden beds in size so not tons of work getting ready for it!
We had storm weather hit on Saturday morning making it unsafe to have the tour when it was scheduled! The chairs of this event performed a miracle quickly deciding to contact all the host gardeners, volunteers which included musicians and artists scheduled to be at the gardens and the volunteer club members scheduled to be at each garden to assist....and various vendors who were scheduled to set up in the college garden where the maps/wrist bands were for sale... Yes was the answer to are you willing to change this to tomorrow, Sunday! And the tour went on with success the next day! That's what I call teamwork and creative decision making!
It was a wonderful experience greeting guests to our yard and garden beds! Gardeners are such fun and appreciative people to be with! Then later in the afternoon the garden hosts and volunteers jumped on a trolley and had a chance to visit all the gardens on the tour also! Long day but full of great experiences! I will be sharing pictures taken in future posts!
