Mount Lebanon garden tour planning aims to return in person in 2027; Sept. 2 info session planned
Summary
Committee members reported a meeting with local gardeners to plan a return to an in-person garden tour in 2027, discussed a Sept. 2 information session for potential hosts, and noted the 2026 virtual tour brought in about $11,376 (partly in gift cards).
Anthony and other committee members summarized a garden-tour meeting that focused on rebuilding participation and moving back to an in-person tour in 2027. They said the 2026 virtual tour raised $11,376 in receipts but that the total included gift-card donations used in raffle baskets and that net cash was lower.
"So on September 2... we will be having [a] garden tour information session," Anthony said, describing the session as an informal panel for potential hosts to learn from previous participants. Committee members discussed a two‑year planning cycle to recruit hosts earlier and target younger families and school communication channels to broaden participation.
