Coming Spring 2025!
The SPP Garden Club’s biennial Backyard Garden Tour is a beloved event within the community which we are proud to coordinate alongside our neighbors and with the support of several local businesses. It is our opportunity to spotlight some of the many hidden-gem outdoor spaces and talented gardeners within our community, while raising money to support the Durham Elementary School PTA, the shared Shepherd Park Plaza & Candlelight Plaza Constable Patrol Program, and the Plaza Garden Club’s neighborhood beautification projects.
