Fourth Annual Green Gardens Tour
(above) Award-winning garden designer, Docent Mayita Dinos, explains the benefits of the 'Rain Garden' (located on 1027 Princeton) during the Fourth Annual Green Gardens Tour 'Gardening with Intent: Water Management' on Saturday, April 26, 2008. The rain water garden, which she has been working on for the past 6 years, is drought-tolerant and will save 80,000 gallons of water per year.

The Green Gardens Tour is a celebration of what is beautiful and possible - and together with the Virginia Avenue Project, helps to sustain our planet one kid and one garden at a time! The tour benefits the Virginia Avenue Project, a not-for-profit arts organization that uses the arts to help kids discover their full potential.
