We will gather at George and Scott’s beautiful house on Lake Pontoosuc at 3:00 p.m. on Saturday October 17 th . We will first tour their next-door neighbor’s gardens that are truly out of House Beautiful. We will then tour the BEAST, a work in progress to exchange garden thoughts and ideas. To recover from the BEAST wine, hot cider, soft drinks and epicurean delights will be served. And, the view of Mt. Greylock from the new Pontoosuc Park Boardwalk is a must see.
WHAT TO BRING
