St. Croix Valley Garden Shop Tour

There are six garden shops in the St. Croix River Valley that participate in this tour and maps are available at each location to get you to all shops. It is short drive from the Twin Cities, ranging from 30 - 45 minutes. The tour locations include: Kinnickinnic Natives, Garden Divas, Skyline Gardens & Ponds, My Sisters Garden, Rustic Gardens, and of course Humble Acres.

Diane, the owner of Humble Acres, has been working steadily since February to provide healthy and lovely container plants. It is a respite to be at her nursery, meandering through the vibrant greenhouses. There is an incredible variety of perennials and grasses. You may even catch a glimpse of the toads and praying mantis living there, courageously defending all the plants.

The weather promises to be sunny and grand. Hoping to see you there this weekend!
