Ohio is truly a hotbed of gardening activity during the growing season. All of the pent-up energy, garden catalog browsing (of which I am a participant) and planning are released within our region by individuals and groups. Here are just a few links to help you plan for your gardening and garden experiences:
Cleveland Botanical Garden An amazing group of gardens - and a fantastic program.
GardenWalk Cleveland GardenWalk Cleveland is a free, self- guided tour of some of the Cleveland, Ohio's lovely gardens, urban farms, vineyards and orchards. Their website for more info on the 2012 tour planned for July 21st and 22nd.
Ohio City Farm This farm is located near the Westside Market and within the growing Ohio City neighborhood. I drove around it several times this summer and it is much larger and nicer than I expected. A truly wonderful project and one of the largest urban farms in the U.S. Check out the website for additional info.
Bay Village Garden Club Bay Village is filled with beautiful gardens in lovely established neighborhoods. Check out their website for more info or to become involved.
Schoepfle Garden A wonderful 70 acre jewel in Northern Ohio. It's unfortunate more people don't stop and enjoy this lovely garden along the beautiful Vermilion River. I've been going there for years, and several times sat with Otto Schoepfle on his bench near the Magnolia tree discussing gardening. Take the time to visit this Birmingham, Ohio garden located just off of Route 113. The garden features collections of rhododendrons, roses, cannas, hostas, shade plants, and varieties of shrubs, topiary and trees.
Put-in-Bay Garden Club The third annual Garden Walk will be held on Wedneday, July 18th from 10 am to 2 pm. The tour will include 4 or 5 Island Gardens with a luncheon included. Mail for info (if anyone has an email please post it) at P.O. Box #814, PIB Ohio 43456. The next tour isn't until 2014 so get your tickets.
Do you have a garden club in counties along Ohio's shores and islands? Please let me know so we can highlight your events, meetings and membership info!
