I have attended a few times. The tour is very informative. I'm always pleased to see which plants don't need as much coddling. The tea afterward is everything I thought it would be. There were master gardeners on hand to answer questions. Worth every penny. It's also a great place to visit on your own to see how the garden progresses throughout the season.
