June 19: 3rd Annual Foster-Powell Garden Tour

The Third Annual Foster Powell Garden Tour is on June 19th, and boasts an interesting array of gardens for your viewing pleasure. The garden categories this year span Traditional, Naturescaped, Edible and Artistic to provide a diversity of styles and sensibilities in garden design. And, if you reside in the Foster-Powell neighborhood (between Foster Road and Powell Boulevard, and between SE 50th and 82nd), you might just want to become a Garden Host for this fun event.
