East End Garden Showcase

June 14th - June 29th 2008

 

Its time to prepare those flower gardens, plan a beautiful showpiece of color and register for the most celebrated garden displays in Charleston.

This year, our East End urban gardens will be showcased June 14 to 29. We are encouraging families, individuals, schools and businesses to sign up. A yard sign will again be placed in the yard or porch of each participating address, and an informal self-guided tour will be printed and distributed.

An added feature for this year’s Showcase is “Meet the Gardener” day June 21 Gardeners will be encour- aged to be at their homes to talk to people about their plants, their techniques and their successful gardens.

The self-guided Garden Showcase tour will be a part of the 2008 FESTIVALL , Charleston’s annual city-wide arts event. This East End contribution of the horticultural arts will promote the walkability of our community and allow visitors to learn more abou urban gardening. Gardens will not be judged.

However, the first 30 addresses to register will receive a $10 gift certif icate from a local East End business. Registration is $5 and is due May 16. You can obtain calling Ric Cavender at (304) 340-4253.
