Garden Walk of Buffalo - July 27 and 28

The Japanese Garden of Buffalo is the northern most garden on the map of our great local weekend garden event. Sat/Sun 9-5 July 27-28

  What is very cool about that fact is that we have a big parking lot at the top of the garden next to the Buffalo History Museum (corner Elmwood and Nottingham Terrace).  Shuttle buses will take guests (free) from The Japanese garden to other stops on the Garden Walk including headquarters where folks can get water and souvenirs.

We are still in need of a few volunteers to greet visiters in the garden.  We are asking people to take two hours to be in the garden as a friendly representative.  We will have informational brochures to hand to folks.  You could bring a picnic, sit in the shade and enjoy the wonerful visitors who love gardens.  Interested? e-mail tstern2@aol.com (Trudy)
