Gardeners will share their roots during Highline Garden Tour Saturday, June 8

The upcoming Highline Garden Tour on June 8, 2013, promises a delightful experience for local gardening enthusiasts, featuring an array of unique gardens in Burien, Normandy Park, and SeaTac. Stephen Lamphear's collector’s garden exemplifies creativity with its series of outdoor "rooms," while John and Nancy Feeney showcase their large vegetable beds and commitment to community service. Inspired by last year's focus on rain gardens, Tom and Terry LePenske have transformed their lawn into a sustainable meadow, demonstrating innovative gardening practices. The tour includes a variety of gardens, such as a rooftop P-Patch and a bohemian-style Victory Garden, enriching the community's gardening culture. Attendees can enjoy plant sales, live music, and special offers from local businesses, enhancing the overall experience.

Tickets are available for advance purchase, with proceeds benefiting the Highline Historical Society. This event not only highlights local gardening efforts but also fosters community engagement and support. For those interested in sustainable gardening and local initiatives, this tour is an excellent opportunity to connect with fellow enthusiasts.
