10.00 – Mary-Ann’s Garden, Maitland – https://www.finegardening.com/article/mary-anns-ontario-garden
We saw this garden in its infancy in 2017. With a backdrop of the St. Lawrence River and an emphasis on texture and colour, this garden has fully matured and is glorious. Gardeners, note the many uncommon plants.
11.00 – Bus Leaves
11.40 – Gilles’ and Ians’ Garden, Rideau Rapids.
The house was built in 2012 and the gardens established by the first owners and have since been expanded. The vegetable plots produce an abundance of produce throughout the growing season. The slope to the quarry is on grass and quite steep, but well worth a visit.
