| Park Seed: The Best Flowers & Vegetables |
| OK...NOW is the time to start dreaming for next summer. One word to the would-be ambitious though, unless you KNOW you will have the time and place to start seeds indoors, try to refrain from buying too much.
Do you know how many seed packs I have had just hanging around for the last few years. For me it is just easier to go 'Nursery hopping' in the early summer and buy the plants I want.

Sunday, June 26, 2005 - WREN's Woburn Garden Tour
WREN's first 'Woburn Garden Tour' took place on Sunday, June 26, 2005 
Woburn's 1st Garden Tour was a great success and could not have happened without: 
From left to right: Joan Farr, coordinator of the 'Woburrn Garden Tour' along with volunteers Dick Farr and Mary Price.
Featured in the Tour were 10 of Woburn's most beautiful gardens. 
All who attended had a wonderful time.
The private gardens featured outstanding landscaping. 
Individual gardeners were present at each of the gardens to answer questions about their gardens. 
Please visit us again for more information about WREN's 'Woburn Garden Tour' 
Make great compost in your backyard with your leaves! If you add green grass clippings, manure, or some other source of nitrogen to the leaves, they will decompose through the winter.
