Cottage Garden Tour
2010

AUGUST 7, 11 AM - 4 PM

Historic West Salem is a neighborhood whose residents work hard to develop lasting relationships, mutual trust, and a strong vibrant neighborhood. Filled with historic cottages, bungalows, and Victorian homes, neighborhood gardens have historically played a large part in the lives of West Salem residents.

The Cottage Garden Tour, sponsored every other year by the West Salem Garden Club, is one of the many ways in which the neighborhood expresses the importance of preserving neighborhood values. This, the seventh year of the tour, there will be 12 gardens presented, with the gardeners there to greet guests and show them around, answering questions about how their gardens evolved. Eight of the 12 gardens have never been on the tour before so past visitors will be in for a treat as well! In addition, the West Salem Community Garden, in its sixth year, will be a “walk-by” on the tour. And as an extra added attraction, there is private vegetable garden located in the 600 block of Broad Street, which will also be a “walk-by.”

You will tour gardens with water features and mini-vegetable gardens; gardens with many unusual pieces of “yard art”; there is a Japanese design garden, and a gardens with unusual and heirloom flowersb; there are tiny gardens and large gardens – something for everyone!
