How do you Garden Tour in Kingfield?

  1. Start at any garden on the map!
  2. Introduce yourself to the homeowner who has volunteered their site as a garden-stop.
  3. Visit as many gardens as you want between 5:30-7:30 PM on Thursday July 13.
  4. End your tour anytime between 7-8:30 PM at Butter Bakery Cafe (also a stop on the tour showing off their new Pollinator garden!) to enjoy treats and conversation with neighbors and fellow-gardeners! $5 per family donation is asked to cover the cost of treats and all proceeds will be used to support KFNA’s volunteers who grow food at the MLK Park Donation Garden & Orchard!
