“This is definitely the year to celebrate our
gardens, yards, patios, and decks and all the
different ways that outdoor spaces enhance
our daily lives,” says Jane Baldwin, co-chairperson
of the 2021 Bexley House & Garden
Tour.
With Covid precautions in mind, the
Bexley Women’s Club has decided to focus
their annual tour on open-air venues.
This year’s tour will feature some of the
best outdoor living spaces in Bexley including
nine residential spaces, the two Bexley
Community Gardens, and the winner of
Bexley’s “Love Your Alley” contest.
With north and south locations, the
Community Gardens provide Bexley residents,
as well as neighboring communities,
a place to garden. The gardens are managed
by volunteer community gardeners, currently
led by Jeff and Maggie Harriman.
The Bexley House & Garden Tour is the
primary fundraising event for Bexley
Women’s Club, which has awarded
more than 900 scholarships totaling over
$550,000 to students in the Bexley area.
Both the community’s north and south gardens
will be open during the tour.
New master gardeners set posts for a trellis
in one of the two Victory Gardens.

along with Covid precaution details.
The Bexley Community Gardens have contributed
produce to area non-profit organizations, starting
with 75 pounds in 2011 increasing to 1,250
pounds in 2020.
