Peek into six fabulous private gardens in North Portland, Oregon. This year’s Green on Green garden tour features a small, treasure garden, an urban plot with chickens and other interesting accouterments, two gardens designed by one of Portland’s premiere landscape architects, and more. Start the day with a pre-tour continental breakfast at Garden Fever and catch owner Lori Vollmer’s presentation on plants for the fall garden. (Pre-tour event limited to 40 participants.)
Proceeds from the day’s events support Portland Reading Foundation (PRF), a local organization delivering a reading intervention program to primary grade children. Tickets available at local Portland nurseries and online when you follow the link below.
