Dear Grapeviners:

July has been proclaimed Union County Gardening Month and so we have dedicated this month’s newsletter to the Sixth Annual Union County Master Gardener Tour of Gardens.

Our Master Gardeners have been diligently working to prepare for the tour, as have each of the hosts for the tour. I think you will find the tour to have very beautiful gardens, to have a wide variety of horticultural displays, and to be very educational. We hope that you will find a number of ideas that you will be able to implement in your own garden, lawn and landscape.

Should you have a gardening question or need assistance in other areas, please contact us at 644.8117 or 1.800.589.8584 (in Union County). We also have a web page where a lot of this information can be found.  Our internet address is http://union.osu.edu.

Happy Gardening!
