| llllll | The Wethersfield Beautification Trust offered a special Garden Tour of public and private gardens starting at Town Hall, with the new Heritage Garden displaying medicinal, dye and culinary plants used by settlers and native Indians in Connecticut's oldest town, settled in 1634. Also highlighted was the exquisite and fragrant Frank W. Weston rose garden, planted and tended by the Wethersfield Men's Garden Club. Other Wethersfield public gardens included a Colonial Revival garden at the Webb-Deane-Stevens Museum and a lovely garden at the Wethersfied Historical Society's Hurlbut-Dunham house. Private garden tours included a water garden, an intimate small space garden, an architect's garden and others. Artists were painting at each site, and their paintings were auctioned at a Garden Party later in the day in a beautiful garden setting created by a Master Gardener. Another Garden Tour is planned for 2006. |
