In 2024, a new event Garden Club Yard Sale will held on Friday, May 31st at the historic Rotunda in the Upper City Park in Hermann. It will begin at 10am and end at 6pm. There will be a special Preview on Thursday, May 30th, from 3-6pm; tickets are $10. According to Bartow Molloy, co-chair with Linda Burkhalter and Ruth Baumstark, “This is not your average Garage Sale! We will feature tons of vintage and costume jewelry, very nice décor items, kitchenware, furniture, antiques, and more for you to purchase. Come join the fun!”
According to Garden Tour Chair Alice Calhoun, the gardens on the 2024 Garden Tour are unique: “We have a many new gardens among both the town and country gardens. Town Tour gardens usually lovely cottage gardens hidden behind historic homes. This year they will include a traditional four-square garden and a vegetable garden. Country Tour estate gardens tend to be much larger than Town Tour gardens and have different elements and features. This year’s gardens include a vineyard, a bee and berry farm, and a flower farm.” Calhoun continues, “To get an overview of the beauty of Hermann’s gardens, visit www.hermanngardentours.com, our website. There you will see gardens that have been on previous tours. And you will be amazed.”
Hermann, named “the most beautiful city in Missouri” and a Missouri DREAM city, has many wineries, over 60 bed and breakfasts inns, many antique and specialty shops, and galleries. And there are excellent eateries. Plan to spend the night and spread the tour over both days.
Garden Club Co-Presidents Elise Bellefontaine and Mary Fritz urge local people to support these events since “Funds raised at the Garden Tour and Yard Sale are used for civic beautification and scholarships for local students.” The co-presidents continue, "If you are interested in joining the Club, please contact us through our website.”
