Tickets available for annual Garden Cruise

“The Garden Cruise” to feature gardens by Deborah Silver

Sylvan Lake, MI – Detroit Garden

Works is proud to present The Garden Cruise on Sunday, July 21, 2013

from 9:30am to 4pm. The Garden Cruise is a tour of gardens designed, planted

and/or inspired by Deborah Silver. All proceeds from this unique tour will

benefit the planting and educational programs of The Greening of Detroit.

According to Silver, “Our most

serious mission as a business is to foster the idea of stewardship of the

environment—a mission The Greening of Detroit has embraced since its

inception.” The Greening of Detroit inspires others to create a “greener”

Detroit through planting and educational programs, environmental leadership and

advocacy. Since 2008, The Garden Cruise has raised over $60,000 for The

Greening of Detroit.

"We appreciate Deborah Silver's commitment and support

in helping create a cleaner and greener Detroit for all to enjoy. The Garden

Cruise has raised more than $60,000 over the past six years to support The

Greening of Detroit's work, and has helped us make a significant impact in our

city. We are pleased to have her steadfast support." said Rebecca Salminen

Witt, President of The Greening of Detroit.

The gardens featured on The

Garden Cruise are some of the finest in the area. Each is varied in style and

approach, but all reflect an ownership for whom the beauty of a garden is an

important part of life.

Tickets for the tour are $35 per

person. Tickets for the tour and a cocktail reception are $50 per person. 

The cocktail reception will be held at Detroit Garden Works following the tour.

Tickets can be purchased in person or over the phone from Detroit Garden Works,

1794 Pontiac Drive in Sylvan Lake, 248-335-8089 or online at
