Leave winter behind and embrace the spring with free tours of three iris venues in the Loomis area; High Hand Nursery, Horton’s Iris Garden and Yarda’s Ditch Water Iris Farm.
The fabulous Loomis Basin Iris Tour and Festival is April 23-25, 2010. Entries are being accepted for the Iris Contest, rules can be downloaded at High Hand or can be picked up in person at High Hand Nursery at 3750 Taylor Road, Downtown Loomis.
Start at High Hand Nursery to pick up your map and grab a gourmet picnic lunch prepared by the High Hand Café. Stroll through High Hand Nursery and purchase irises in bloom, or order specialty irises from Horton’s or Yarda’s. Check out the iris judging at High Hand Nursery, where growers enter their pride and joy and hope to be picked the best of the best.
Each of the venues will be at their most beautiful and the weather should be warm and mild.
