Gage Glen is a woodlander's paradise attracting birds and wildlife. The gardens of Gage Glen welcomes many shade loving native and flowering plants which bloom beautifully under the canopy of nearby trees.

The Stewart Garden also evokes an enchanted woodland setting. Michelle Stewart's garden

was developed under the creative influence of her Master Gardener mother, Jo Ann Wright. Wright has developed many gardens, one of which was featured in The Better Homes and Gardens Garden Shed magazine.

For those who are plant connoisseurs, the Echols Garden features a Japanese Maple nursery and extensive flowerbeds. Gardeners

who are blessed with ample summer sun will take home many great ideas from the sunny setting of the Giles Garden. Linda Giles has conquered the summer heat gardening with plants that like it "hot, hot, hot".

Master Gardeners will be available the day of the tour to identify plants and answer gardening questions. Maps to the gardens will be provided for self-guided tours. Advanced sales are $12 per ticket for five
