Open Days Program Garden Tour - Chicago's Western Suburbs

Explore a private garden in Elburn, and The Gardens at Ball
in West Chicago, the trial grounds for the Ball Horticultural Company, open to
the public to benefit the Garden Conservancy. No reservations required; rain or
shine. Admission is $5 per garden; children 12 & under free. 

Begin at either location: Hummer Haven, 43W712 Willow Creek Drive,
Elburn, features three landscaped ponds with waterfalls and plantings that
cater to wildlife feeding and habitat. The Gardens at Ball will give guided
tours throughout its 10 acres of annual, perennial, and shrub varieties
showcased in beds and containers. See www.opendaysprogram.org for additional information.
