Want to see how your neighbors in Northeast Seattle are living a more local and sustainable lifestyle? Want to wander through their yards to do it?
This is a self-guided tour – start anywhere you like, visit any gardens you like in any order you wish. Here’s how:
- Head to this Google map, which contains nearly all the sites on the tour. Choose a garden near you and head on over (starting at 11am; addresses on the tour will have signage).
- Each location has handouts including addresses and descriptions of every garden on the list, AND a map showing you the locations of all 15 gardens.
- Donate a few bucks (if you like) for the handout, read it over, and go check out some edible gardens! You have until 5pm!
Do bring the kids! There are children’s activities throughout the tour — noted on the handout — including projects and prizes.
This edible garden tour is a reoccurring event and is hosted by members of the Sustainable Northeast Seattle Urban Farmers group. The next edible garden tour is planned for August 8.
