||| FROM NITA COUCHMAN for ORCAS GARDEN CLUB |||
The Orcas Island Garden Club invites you to join us at our 2021 Safe Garden Tour on Saturday, June 26 and Sunday, June 27 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
As you explore each of the five lovely tour gardens, enjoy all the beautiful plants and learn how each garden reflects the garden owner’s unique vision and island location.
Two of the gardens are open on Saturday, one is open both days and two different gardens are open on Sunday.
- Garden A & B (Margaret Payne and Martha Kramer) are open only on Saturday
- Garden C (Catiya Gainor) is open both Saturday & Sunday
- Garden D & E (Kaj Dawg Farm & Doe Bay) are only open on Sunday
We’ll also be offering different fun activities for guests at each garden throughout the tour, such as: Master Gardeners there to answer your questions, free plant handouts, live music, raffles, garden art exhibit, floral displays as well as some for sale, a scavenger hunt and gardening demonstrations.
This year, our garden tour has been redesigned to enhance safety for guests, volunteers and garden owners. Since our event is outdoors, masks will be optional. The number of visitors allowed inside each garden at a time will be based on the size and layout of the garden and will be limited to allow sufficient space for everyone to move about safely.
Tickets for the tour cost $20 and can be purchased at Darvill’s Bookstore and Driftwood Nursery, online at OrcasIslandGardenClub.org or at each of the tour gardens.
Hope you can join us at the garden tour as we welcome summer and celebrate our love for plants.

A garden is a friend you can visit any time.
