Join us for the 2013 Garden Walk on Saturday, May 25th.

Saturday, 9:00 a.m.

About 3 Miles, Easy Pace

Meet in the downtown plaza at 9:00 and walk a route along flower filled neighborhood streets to a variety of private front yard and backyard gardens in Sebastopol.  We’ll visit five gardens—some we’ve visited before and some new—with opportunities to talk with the gardeners and take photos. We stop midway for a bathroom break at Ives Park and will return to the plaza around noon.

Wear comfortable shoes, a hat, and bring water, sunscreen and a snack.

No dogs in the gardens, please.

Leader: Nick Kishmirian
