Over 100 Purdue Master Gardeners from across Indiana met in Bloomington, IN at the Monroe County fairgrounds on June 16, 2017 to enjoy some great presentations, snacks, and a boxed lunch before embarking on a choice of one of three fabulous garden tours in the Bloomington area. Tour 1 featured the Wylie House Native and Heirloom Garden, Monroe County Courthouse Native Plant Garden, and Indiana University&#8217;s Dunn&#8217;s Woods. Tour 2 visited Harvest Moon Flower Farm and Eco Logic Plant Nursery. Tour 3 made a trip to Growing Opportunities Hydroponic Greenhouse with Goldleaf Hydroponics. All tours made a stop at Oliver Winery to tour the gardens and of course, do some shopping!<\/p>\n<p>Here was their informational brochure:\u00a02017 Purdue MG State Tour<\/p>\n<p>The Purdue MG State Office would like to express appreciation to Mary Cusack, Monroe County Master Gardener Association President and Tour Chair, Amy Thompson, Extension Educator, Monroe County, and all of the Monroe County Master Gardeners for their excellent work on this very successful state tour!
