BTML: The library's Home & Garden Day Tour is June 6

Saturday, June 6, is the annual Home & Garden Day fundraiser for the Bayard Taylor Memorial Library/Kennett Public Library. As a volunteer I got a sneak preview of this year's houses and gardens, which are in the Landenberg, New London, West Grove and Avondale area, and they're wonderful.
Tickets are available at the library or online (www.bayardtaylor.org), and at $35 they are a bargain. The tour is run by the library's Special Events Committee, who are a wonderfully creative and hardworking group of folks.
One of the organizers wrote in an email to me: "With all the controversies concerning the library this year, we are hoping that people will not associate those issues with the purpose of the Tour. It is really about the children and the excellent programming available to them. As you well know most of the funds raised goes to these programs and services."
I couldn't have said it better.
