FALMOUTH — A self-guided tour of a dozen Falmouth gardens will take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, rain or shine. Proceeds from the tour will benefit the Falmouth Memorial Library and St. Mary’s Garden Club in Falmouth.
The garden locations will remain a secret until the morning of the tour, but several of the gardens offer spectacular ocean views.
Two authors — Judy Paolini, author of “The Inspired Garden,” and Lisa Colburn, author of “The Maine Garden Journal” — will sign their books at different gardens on the tour.
The gardens featured include a black garden, a secret garden, rose gardens, a parterre garden, a glade garden and a nationally recognized artist’s personal sculpture garden, along with stonework, ocean overlooks and neighboring gardens with connecting paths.
