Tickets are now on sale for the Sawtooth Botanical Garden’s 23rd annual Garden Tour.
This year’s tour will be held from 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Saturday, July 28, and will feature private gardens located in Warm Springs, West Ketchum and at Hemingway Steam School.
The gardens offer a peak at top-notch high-elevation horticulture and outdoor living spaces, said SBG Executive Director Jen Smith. They include an artist’s garden, a creek front paradise, a visionary masterpiece, a contemporary lifestyle landscape, a delightful cottage garden and an edible garden cultivated by children, she added.
“Not only are the seven gardens a visual feast but they offer educational, eye-opening examples of what can be accomplished in our challenging Zone 4 environment,” added Garden Tour Chair and SBG Board Director Cherie Kessler.
Tickets are $25 for SBG members and $30 for nonmembers when purchased online at www.sbgarden.org or at the Sawtooth Botanical Garden south of Ketchum. They will also be available at the Ketchum Arts Festival July 13-15 in Sun Valley’s Festival Meadows.
They will be $30 and $35 on the day of the tour.
