Rossmoor’s 16th annual Spring Garden Tour and Outdoor Marketplace is expected to be bigger and better than ever this year. Ticket holders will be able to visit five back yards in Rossmoor and the surrounding area, as well as shop at the Outdoor Marketplace at Rush Park, which will feature a variety of vendors, a plant sale, a raffle, food trucks and speakers from Vector Control and the UC Master Gardener Program talking about best practices for nurturing your plants.
The event, sponsored by the Rossmoor Woman’s Club, is scheduled to take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday, May 19.
