Garden Tour a Happy Success

FFT_GardenPainting, 3/26/09, 2:10 PM,  8C, 4144x5887 (637+923), 88%, bent 6 stops,  1/20 s, R81.3, G65.4, B94.0On one of the hottest, sunniest days of the spring seven generous property owners opened their homes and gardens to benefit Food For Thought.

Our 14th annual Western Sonoma County Home & Garden Tour was a huge success.

Why?

Happiness.

As one tour attendee said in a note to us: “… not a grouchy person anywhere in all that heat!”

On a day when the mercury hovered in the 90s, there was incredible good cheer on the tour. More than 50 FFT volunteers greeted people, directed parking and traffic, handed out lunches, and answered questions – all with smiles.

In addition, the homeowners told us we have the nicest group of tour attendees they could imagine and were impressed with the thoughtful questions they were asked and gratitude they heard expressed.

For those of you who missed this year’s tour, or would like more information, you can take our virtual tour.

We’re already searching out homes and gardens for next year’s tour. If you know a home or garden (it can be just a garden without the home) that might be a good candidate, please contact Suzi LeBaron at suzil@fftfoodbank.org.

We hope to see you on next year’s tour!
