The Gardens of Octorara is a community-based committee that provides horticultural programming to raise funds for the three public libraries in the Octorara area: Atglen Public Library, Moores Memorial Library and Parkesburg Library. The Gardens of Octorara donates the proceeds of its tour of private gardens and other horticultural events to the libraries for use at their discretion.

6th Annual Garden Tour
Saturday, May 30, 2009 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tickets are $10 in advance ($15 on the day of the tour)
Each year the garden tour features 7 to 10 private gardens in the Upper Octorara area. This self-drive, self-paced tour takes you to gardens created by passionate gardeners who will surprise you with their motivation and enthusiasm. The number of gardens is limited to encourage you to slow down, allowing yourself enough time in each garden to absorb its unique qualities.
Your ticket is the brochure! Each brochure includes information about each garden, a map to locate them, and information about our sponsors, who make all these programs possible. Tickets go on sale on April 25, 2009.
Special thanks to Twin Brook Winery, our presenting sponsor for the sixth year in a row. We couldn’t do it without them!
Tickets available at: Atglen Public Library | Tickets by mail: include a #10 SASE with your check |
