Garden Days at Tower Hill is part of a national event to celebrate gardens and gardening and to bring garden lovers across Ontario  together.

Our Garden Days event, hosted by the Parry Sound and District Horticultural Society, Tower Hill Gardeners and Museum on Tower Hill was an overwhelming success. The weather was perfect and the Garden looked wonderful.

And just as we were ready to leave … more people started to arrive.  It was a wedding party coming to have their photos taken.  A picture perfect way to end a picture perfect day!
