Garden tour honours Fulton

Sixteen or more private gardens will be open to the public and the gardeners will be on hand to answer your questions as part of the late spring Toronto Island garden tour on May 30 and 31 from 1 to 5 p.m.

The Ward’s Island ferry departs from the foot of Bay St. on the hour and half hour.  From the Ward’s dock follow the signs to 5 Ojibway where tickets and maps will be available.

Tickets are $10 for adults, $8 for seniors and $2 for children. The funds raised are used for public landscaping projects on the island.

This is the eighth year of the tour, which this year honours recently deceased founder Albert Fulton. Phone (416) 203-0968, www.torontoisland.org, or annekotyk@yahoo.ca.
