Featuring Gardens with Style & Sustainability in Middleton Hills & More
Olbrich's 2015 Home Garden Tour presents eight exceptional gardens that demonstrate the ethic of sustainability through a diversity of styles. Included is the neighborhood of Middleton Hills--a model of new urbanism--where smaller, intimate lots are built around generous shared greenspaces. On the other end of the spectrum, large suburban lots and historic farm property showcase fruit orchards, organic vegetable gardens, backyard chickens, and beekeeping. Native plants and prairies, composting and permaculture techniques, and cleverly recycled materials are also featured. Talk with homeowners, landscape designers, Master Gardeners, and other Olbrich volunteers, and learn some of the techniques employed by these gardeners who create functional and beautiful spaces that are harmonious with nature.
Tickets will be available at Olbrich's Growing Gifts shop starting June 1.* *It is not necessary to purchase tickets in advance of the tour dates. Tickets will also be available the days of the tour at the Tour Day Ticket Outlet (TBA). Garden site addresses are listed on the tour tickets, which can be purchased at Olbrich Gardens prior to the tour and on the tour dates. The garden site addresses are only published on the tour tickets to protect the homeowners' privacy.
