21st Annual Garden Tour & Tea
Saturday, June 24, 2023 10:00am – 4:00pm
After a three-year hiatus the Oak Harbor Garden Tour & Tea is back and better than ever. Why? Because this year we are celebrating 100 years in the community.
On October 3, 1923, a group of Oak Harbor women organized, at the time called a civic improvement club. These pioneering women fought to protect a stand of native Garry oak trees which later became Smith Park, saving the trees for future generations.
One hundred years later our non-profit organization is still here with 60 plus volunteers ready to roll up our sleeves and get to work.
