Master Gardeners tour set for July 16

The Carlton County Master Gardeners are once again hosting a garden tour. The July 16 tour will showcase five gardens in the Cloquet area. Highlights of the tour will include a small-space garden with a children's area; a garden where a resident grows garlic and herbs and harvests maple syrup; stops at a beekeeper and a berry farmer; a community garden; and lots of perennials and garden art.

The free, self-guided tour runs 4-7 p.m. Tuesday, July 16, rain or shine. Maps will be available after July 9 at the Extension Office, 317 Chestnut Ave. in Carlton, and at the Carlton County Master Gardener Facebook page.
