What a fun time on Saturday as we welcomed the Penticton Garden Club, the Keremeos Garden Club and the Summerland one, to tour our garden as part of the Penticton Garden Club "Secret Garden Tour".
It is gratifying to see a weed free, colourful garden, but it is another thing to share that with friends and below gardeners.
It was a lot of work to be ready for them, but it is work I would do anyway, just more energizing to do it for others! I must remember this, and organize more garden sharing times. I have been wondering if the garden could open as a fund-raiser for organizations occasionally. I may probe that a bit further.
The "secret" part of the tour is that no-one knows which gardens they are going to until they gather and get the map top the first house, where they receive instructions to the 2nd house and so on.
