About six ladies participated in the registration.  In addition about ten ladies took turns greeting visitors at the six locations. It takes a lot of work to make every garden tour a success. In keeping with the spirit of the garden tour, one of the one of the location's greeter's wore a spring flower hat.  Below, click on the individual images to launch a slideshow of the garden locations.

A child's play set is cleverly incorporated into this setting that has something different to see at every turn. We made sure to look outside the fence as well as the wall garden display. N. North Ave Garden Tour
