Orcas Garden Club’s tour will include lectures on island history and horticultural “how-to.” At George Orser’s Orcas Farm, island historian Tom Welch will speak on Doe Bay history.

You can learn about composting and seed-saving from staff at The Doe Bay Garden (pictured above), which supplies the Doe Bay Café with food that never sees the inside of a truck.

And in Olga, at Cherry Hill Farm, staff from the San Juan County Noxious Weed Board will teach tour goers how to identify and safely eliminate noxious weeds. The tour is from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., June 23-24. Tickets are $20 at Driftwood Nursery and Darvill’s Bookstore in Eastsound and online at BrownPaperTickets.com.
