Things to do at Tagawa Gardens: August 2014

 

I enjoy shopping at Tagawa Gardens. During my last visit in early July, I wandered around the indoor gift shop. They had many wonderful and unique items including yard art and decor; gardening clothes, tools and hats; greeting cards, pillows and pottery. And as you can tell from the photo, outdoor furniture!

After perusing for a bit, I ended up purchasing a lovely brass and glass hummingbird feeder! I had a cheap plastic one from last year and decided I needed an upgrade. My sister claims she saw a hummingbird when she was visiting, but I still have not seen one myself! I think they are hiding from me!

 

In addition to their shop and nursery, Tagawa Gardens offers weekend classes, concerts and other events. Get out your calendar and save the dates for the upcoming August happenings!

Hello Shar!! We've lived in the area for 17+ years and I still haven't been to any of their classes! I'm hoping to go to at least one this month. The pesto sounds yummy, or maybe I'll make some soap!

Hello Noah~ I'm going to make it a point to attend a class/event in August, so I can speak about my experience, first-hand! Maybe I'll see someone I know, or better yet, someone who reads my blog!
