We will have a special treat on Friday morning. Award winning garden designer Lisa Mierop will give an informative presentation about her involvement in design projects at Van Vleck Gardens and in private gardens in our area. Her firm, Mierop Design, offers a complete range of exterior services from Master Landscape Planning and architectural services to full project implementation, including outdoor furnishings and customized property maintenance. The lecture is free but seating will be as space permits in the living room. Register here.

We are grateful for the generous spirit of our Tour homeowners and ask that you repay their kindness with your best garden etiquette. Please stay off the paths; do not pick any plant or any part of a plant; do not eat, drink, smoke or litter; and please, no children under twelve years of age, no pets, and no strollers.

Please note street closings on Saturday June 3: The African-American Heritage parade will start at the corner of Maple & Bloomfield Avenues at 10:30 am and will move through the south end of town through out the morning.  The festival runs from 1pm to 6 pm.   Visitors traveling to the gardens on our Tour may need to readjust their path crossing those streets when going between gardens. 

Thanks to the ongoing support of our sponsors.
