From Parks and People:
It was a rainy Saturday, but over 100 people braved the weather to attend the Second Annual Charm City Garden Tour, hosted by the Community Greening Resource Network (CGRN) and the Maryland Master Gardeners. About half of the participants stayed relatively dry on the bus while the cyclists hunkered down with rain ponchos.
Both groups visited several terrific gardens on Baltimore’s west side including: Whitelock Community Farm, Reservoir Hill Community Garden, Druid Hill City Farm, Roosevelt Park City Farm, Ash Street Community Garden, Lennox Street Community Garden, Newington Avenue Beautification Garden, Eric Waller Mt. Washington Vegetable Garden, Cordelia-Hayward-Cuthbert Community Garden, Park Heights Urban Renaissance Garden, Our Community Garden, AFYA: Park Heights Health Alliance and the Lennox Street Community Garden.
The post-tour party had to be moved indoors, but that didn’t stop the music,
fun and locally grown food from flowing.
You can see pictures of the tour and party here on our Facebook page or click here to view photos courtesy of Howard Fink.
Thanks to the additional sponsors of the event – PNC Bank and the Baltimore Office of Promotion & The Arts.
