Our 2nd Annual Home Tour was a smashing success from both an organizational and participant standpoint. We really enjoyed all of the face time and virtual discussion about the incomparable Paradise Gardens. One aspect that didn't lend itself very well to photography and couldn't be included here was our seminar series. The feedback letters that we received were consistently inspired by the guest speakers, and jazzed about having access to such wonderful resources here in the Valley. We've grown from 120 attendees at our first annual event to 300 participants in the short span of a year. Thanks so much to everyone who contributed to the success of our annual event. See you next spring!
