The Bowen Island Garden Club's open garden for the month of June is at the home of Mary White. The garden is located at 1729 South Cove Road, off Eagle Cliff Road will be open from 1 to 3 p.m. on Sunday, June 10. There is a small charge for non-members but new memberships can be bought on-site. Visitors should park on Eagle Cliff Road.
'Mary's Magic Garden' was created in memory of long- time Bowen residents, her parents, Amy and Ernest Buckerfield. Her visit down memory lane also yielded a book, Buckerfield, the Story of a Vancouver Family.
At 89 years young, Mary invites both young and old to enjoy her garden. Children are advised that there will be stations for sketching and painting, but it is suggested that enthusiasts bring along some of their own materials. The property is in the Hood Point area and as with the recent visit to the home of Joyce and John Pearkes, we can anticipate memorable sweeping views across Howe Sound. Come join us.
