Garden Walk - "...and in between we garden."

It is with much pride that the Batavia Plain Dirt Gardeners present their 2011 garden walk, “…and in between we garden.” The Walk showcases eight beautifully varied gardens from a cozy lot wrapped around an 80 year old Bavarian Tudor home to an acre of wildly abundant perennials flowing around a koi-filled swimming pond. Also, not to be missed is the Wildflower Sanctuary on the Batavia Riverwalk. Advance tickets may be purchased for $13.00 at the Batavia Park District and many local businesses beginning May 23rd. The day of the Walk, tickets will be available for $15.00 at the Holmstad - A Covenant Retirement Community, 700 West Fabyan Parkway, in Batavia. Follow the on-site signs to the Ahlstrand Cultural Center where a complimentary tea will be presented by The Holmstad staff. After enjoying refreshments in the elegant setting, stroll over to visit the gardens lovingly tended by The Holmstad residents. Please visit the Batavia Plain Dirt Gardeners on Facebook.
