White House Spring Garden Tours

by Jon on March 28th, 2007

As yet another sign of Spring, the annual White House Spring Garden Tour is just around the corner.

The tour will commence at Sherman Park located between E. Executive Drive and 15th Street, NW near E Street, just to the south of the Department of the Treasury building.

For some additional information on the White House gardens and their history check out my post from the Fall tour.
