Your Garden: A stop on the Charles Village Garden Walk

Charles Village Garden Walk

Reggie Higgins' garden will be a stop on the Charles Village Garden Walk this weekend.

"My father had a green thumb and every spring we always had a nice garden with a great variety of plants," said Higgins. "I attempted to create a space to relax and enjoy with family and friends."

The 30th annual Charles Village Garden Walk will be held Sunday.

Tickets for the self-guided tour of 30 gardens are $10 and will be on sale at the Garden Walk Booth at Charles Street and 29th Street. The gardens are open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The Charles Village Festival itself runs Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. with live music and vendors.

About Susan Reimer

Susan Reimer has spent 16 years writing about raising kids - among other topics - in her column for The Baltimore Sun. And every time son Joseph or daughter Jessie passed another milestone - driver's license, college, wedding or a move to a new military duty station - she has planted another garden. Now she will be writing about those gardens - and yours - here on Garden Variety.

Susan isn't an expert gardener, but she wasn't an expert mother, either. Both - the kids and the gardens - seem to be doing well in spite of her.

She lives in Annapolis with her husband, Gary Mihoces, who loves to cut his grass but has noticed that there seems to be less of it every time the kids pass another milestone.
