A Place to Ponder

TAWGS

Topeka Area Water Garden Society

News Stream

 The Topeka Area Water Garden Society is having our 31st annual Pond Tour on June 25-26th. Explore seven local gardens, five are private residences, two are public gardens. Meet the owners, learn about water gardening under various conditions, and get ideas how to transform your own backyard. Tickets are $8 a person (kids under 14 are free, no pets please), and can be purchased from: Don & Tom's Bait & Tackle, Hy-Vee, Jackson’s Greenhouse, Patio, Pool & Fireside, Skinner Garden Store, and Wild Bird House. Money raised from the tour is used to help build or maintain water gardens in our community.

Next Meeting

The next TAWGS meeting will be April 17th at 6:30pm at the Topeka Zoo. The meeting will be held in the Gary Clarke Education Center which is just east of Kay's Garden. Please enter through the admission gate and once in the zoo turn right to go to the building just past the gift store. We'll learn about the pump house and some of the mechanics behind what makes Kay's Garden function. Please keep in mine the location and time being different from the usual! Ward-Meade has Tulips at Twilight going on on the weekends so please be sure to check out the garden.
Hope to see you at the meeting!
