Garden Tour Beauty

The 5th Annual Garden Tour sponsored by the LWV Umpqua Valley was a huge success. Many commented on the beauty of the gardens on display.

Many thanks to the generous and gracious gardeners who allowed the community to “drop by” between 10AM and 5PM on Saturday, June 11, 2016. The gardens showed extreme care, creativity, and thoughtfulness.

Thank you to the artists who displayed their works and to the musicians who entertained the garden admirers.

We hope you all had a great time. Thank you for coming!
