2018 tour to be held Sun., July 15
VANCOUVER — The Clark County Green Neighbors program is seeking hosts for its 2018 Natural Garden Tour on Sun., July 15. To participate, residents should practice environmentally friendly gardening techniques and be willing to offer public tours of their yards and gardens.
The annual event is a fun way residents can show off their gardens and the Earth-conscious methods they use to make them blossom. The event gives people a chance to learn gardening techniques, get inspiration for home landscaping, and exchange ideas with others.
“I’ve learned that creativity and sustainability are not mutually exclusive when it comes to gardening,” said Sally Fisher, sustainability program coordinator at Clark County Public Health. “Each year, I’m surprised by the variety and beauty of the Natural Garden Tour hosts’ landscaping and the ways people help one another learn about sustainable gardening practices.”
To register to be a Natural Garden Tour host, contact Jill Krumlauf at Public Health at (360) 397-2121 ext. 7342 or jill.krumlauf@clark.wa.gov.
The Natural Garden Tour is sponsored by Clark County’s Green Neighbors program.
