 The Topeka Area Water Garden Society is having our 31st annual Pond Tour on June 25-26th. Explore seven local gardens, five are private residences, two are public gardens. Meet the owners, learn about water gardening under various conditions, and get ideas how to transform your own backyard. Tickets are $8 a person (kids under 14 are free, no pets please), and can be purchased from: Don & Tom's Bait & Tackle, Hy-Vee, Jackson’s Greenhouse, Patio, Pool & Fireside, Skinner Garden Store, and Wild Bird House. Money raised from the tour is used to help build or maintain water gardens in our community.

Next Meeting

It's June! ...and that means it's time for the Pond Tour Potluck! Wednesday the 17th at 6pm in the Preston Hale room at Ward-Meade. We'll celebrate and honor the hosts of the tour, without whom the tour would not be possible. We'll learn a little about each pond on the tour and will have a great meal. Members get free tour tickets so be sure to come and collect yours- it's a great time to join! Please bring a dish to share, tableware will be provided.
