Mill Creek Garden Club needs you, well more specifically, your garden for their 2018 Mill Creek Garden Tour.

Why show your garden?  If you chat with previous tour homeowners, almost to a person they viewed their participation as a positive experience.

How do I put “shine” into words when probably 30-40 pictures would say it best? Since this isn’t a picture book, let me put fingers to keyboard to convey mental images of the gardens, their owners and the tour goers of last Saturday’s Mill Creek Garden Tour. 

Get off to an early start on Saturday, June 24th:  First participate in the “Run of the Mill” 5K Walk/Run event. Then change into casual attire, and leisurely stroll through the not often seen backyards of the six lovely gardens open for the 3rd Annual Mill Creek Garden Tour.

Mill Creek Garden Club kicked off its May 9th meeting with a special appearance by Steve Smith, The Whistling Gardener, from Sunnyside Nursery, Marysville. His topic “Hot for 2017 Plants” was met with great enthusiasm, as was his Q & A session at the end of his presentation. 

On a chilly April morning twenty Mill Creek Garden Club members and their guests hopped into their designated carpools and drove over to Cottage Lake Gardens in Woodinville. 

It’s been a cold cold winter, but Spring is just around the corner!  Longer, warmer days, daffodils blooming, tulips on the way. The Mill Creek Garden Club is anxious to get out in our gardens.  To help us calm our need for spring, the Garden Club has lined up a great speaker and an excursion!

That’s right - the Ed Hume will be the guest speaker at the Mill Creek Garden Club luncheon and program on Tuesday, October 11th, at 11:00 am.

The recipient of numerous awards and honors, Ed Hume is especially proud of his induction into the Garden Writers Association "Hall of Fame," their highest honor.

The Mill Creek Garden Tour, presented by the Mill Creek Garden Club is the 25th of June, from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm. You will visit six wonderful gardens on this self-guided tour. The homeowners and members of the Mill Creek Garden Club will be in each garden to welcome you and answer your question.
