After all the rain (our gardens needed rain so it was a blessing!) the sun is shining again and it's going to be a nice weekend, so get out to one or all of these great gardening events in Ithaca and Tompkins County this weekend!
On
Saturday, June 15 from 10 am to 4 pm it's the Garden Conservancy's Open Days garden tours. Three unique, quirky and gorgeous gardens will be open for one day only! For more information, garden descriptions and directions, go to the
Open Days information page.

On
Sunday, June 16 from 10 am to 4 pm hop on The Gardener's Trail! Ten locally-owned, unique specialty nurseries and garden centers will be running free special activities. Hear talks and demonstrations on growing roses and citrus fruits, sample local beer and salsa, take a wagon ride around a farm and orchard, and more! There is also a different raffle prize at each location - no cost to enter, just fill out the entry form at each nursery or garden center that you visit that day! For more information, activity descriptions and a map of locations, go to the
Gardener's Trail information page.
