Milton Garden Club plans Homes and Gardens Tour July 12

The Milton Chamber of Commerce’s June 5 mixer was hosted by the Milton Garden Club. This event was held in club member Kathryn Greig's garden, one of the 11 private gardens which will be open for the Milton Homes and Gardens Tour from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturday, July 12. The tour theme, A Walk Down Union Street, also includes two public gardens, four historic homes, the Milton Theatre, the Milton Historical Society Museum and the former Welch Pharmacy. Nancy Trask, vice president of the garden club, said, “The experience is like nothing else as you stroll from one intimate garden room into another.  The overall garden totally captures your imagination.  It is utterly breathtaking.”
