WESTMINSTER — After two years of event cancellations due to the pandemic, Westminster Cares says it is excited that its 2022 Garden Tour will be held this summer.
The event will be held the weekend of July 9 and 10 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. both days. The Tour is held rain or shine and tickets, which are now on sale, are good for both days.
This year's Westminster Garden Tour will again feature the stunning gardens of Gordon and Mary Hayward. Gordon and his wife Mary have been developing these gardens around their 220-year-old farmhouse in Westminster West for the past 35 years.
Three additional Westminster gardens will be on the self-guided tour: Cheryl Charles and Family, Obe and Lonnie Lisai, and the Westminster Center School's vegetable garden. Attendees will also be able to take a meditative walk in a stone labyrinth and attend demonstrations such as “Container Gardening” and “Saplings: Sculpting, Bending and Weaving.”
A quilt has been donated by Ann Ashcroft for Westminster Cares' raffle, which will have many other prizes as well. Lunch and refreshments will be available under the tents at the Haywards.
Proceeds from this event go to support the programs and services of Westminster Cares whose mission is creating opportunities for seniors and adults with disabilities to live with dignity and independence in the community.
