10E2175: Somerville Garden Club Tour | June 9


The Somerville (MA) Garden Club was founded in 1994 by a group of residents to promote home gardening as well as the horticultural possibilities of Somerville’s public spaces. Their garden tour is coming up and I asked their publicist Lisa Dezmelyk is thre were any edibles on the tour - as an accompaniment to recent posts on Euell Gibbons and Rohan Anderson. Big YES was the answer.

BACKYARD HAVENS OF THE SOMERVILLE GARDEN CLUB: A SELF-GUIDED TOUR
SUNDAY, JUNE 9, 2013 | 11:00 AM-4:00 PM | RAIN OR SHINE

From the Somerville Garden Club:
"Our 2013 tour showcases the gardens of our very own Somerville Garden Club members and celebrates the many kinds of gardeners who create backyard (and front yard!) havens for their own pleasure and the enjoyment of neighbors and friends. The gardeners themselves will be welcoming visitors to their yards on tour day, so this is your chance to learn about plants, design, and horticulture from this wonderful array of passionate SGC members. Prepare to be inspired and educated, and don’t be surprised if you go away eager to create your own urban haven."
