As the first weekend of summer nears, the participants in the annual Williamsville Garden Walk are preparing for another stunning display. Dozens of residents are welcome to stroll around the village for free on Saturday, June 26th from 10:00am to 4:00pm and acquire gardening tips. Stop at Village Hall on Saturday to pick up a garden map. Visit the Williamsville Event Page for more information.
This year I hope to see residents collecting rain water for the irrigation of their gardens. The collection of rain water is a great way to save money on your water bill, as well as helping out the environment. If you are interested in using a rain water collection system to water your gardens, there are many different do-it-yourself instructions. Or, if you are looking for a more permanent solution, companies like RainXchange provide additional services to integrate water features into your existing landscape.
