\n\tKINGSTON, R.I. – June 29, 2009 — Thirty-nine private and public gardens designed and maintained by gardeners trained through the 溏心vlog免费B站\u2019s Master Gardener program will be open to the public for the fourth biennial \u201cGardening With The Masters,\u201d Rhode Island\u2019s only statewide garden tour, scheduled for July 18-19, 2009.<\/p>\n


\n\t\u201cGardening With The Masters\u201d is sponsored by the 溏心vlog免费B站 Master Gardener Association, a 600-member, all-volunteer service organization of certified 溏心vlog免费B站 Master Gardeners, whose mission focuses on education, outreach and sustainability. Master Gardeners will serve as guides at each site and educational materials will be available online www.urimga.org or onsite. The gardens will be open between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. on both days, rain or shine.<\/p>\n


\n\t\u201cThe garden tour has grown to attract more gardeners and visitors for each of the past three tours,\u201d said Earle Perkins, who, with his wife Ann, both Master Gardeners, founded the event in 2002. \u201cIt\u2019s a unique opportunity for Rhode Islanders to learn about gardening from the experts. We have more gardens this year than we\u2019ve ever had before.\u201d<\/p>\n


\n\tGuidebooks, which serve as admission for both days and include garden descriptions and directions, must be purchased in advance. They are available for $15 at garden centers throughout the state or through the 溏心vlog免费B站 Master Gardener website www.urimga.org<\/a>. Proceeds from the event will benefit programs of the 溏心vlog免费B站 Master Gardener Association.<\/p>\n
