Happy yards, happy owners

With temperatures approaching 100 degrees, you may find yourself thinking about yards and gardens that thrive with less water.  There’s a “Water Wise Wonders” garden tour today from 9 till 4, sponsored by the Jefferson County Master Gardener’s program.  The tour includes five yards, including one in Golden.  Admission is $12 for adults, $10 for seniors, and free for children under 12.  The proceeds support the Master Gardener program and help fund a scholarship for a horticulture or landscape design student at CSU.  You can start at any location on the tour.  The Golden address is 524 Wyoming Circle.
