Garden Tour

Submitted by Susan Barr, Co-Chair of the Garden Tour Committee

The Gilmanton Year Round Library would like to thank the following sponsors for their support at the 4th Annual Garden Tour which was held on Saturday, July 16, 2011, under gloriously sunny skies:  Bedard Preservation, Cole Gardens (and donated items), The Tanksure Program, Spider Web Gardens and Stafford Oil Co.


Thanks go out to all those who helped with set up/clean up, food preparation, parking, registration and raffle sales including:  Carolyn Dickey, Elizabeth Bedard, Cindy Hatch, Meg Nighswander, Linda Clarke, Carmel Roberts, Nanci Mitchell, Lu Philipps, Thomie Dombrowski, Bert Philipps, John Dickey, Steve Bedard, Dick Barr, Sue Harris, Peter Woodard and Chris Schlagel.


Our deepest thanks is extended to Patty Humphrey for not only sharing her gorgeous gardens, but for being the most gracious and generous hostess imaginable.  Also to Audrey and Dan Humphrey, who allowed their home to become our “center of operations.”


Our sincere appreciation is also extended to our guest lecturer, Roger Swain, (host of PBS’ The Victory Garden) who combined just the right amount of knowledge and wit to inform and entertain, and his companion, Ouida Young. 


Lastly, our heartfelt thanks goes out to all those who attended this amazing event to support the Gilmanton Year Round Library and joining us for a magical day.
