Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church will hold its first-ever garden tour on Saturday, June 27, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The tour will take place in the New Holland vicinity and will be held rain or shine.

Those who purchase tickets will receive a map showing the locations of the featured gardens, which are all in close proximity and range from Welsh Mountain to the Intercourse area. Attendees will travel at their own pace in their own vehicle, and they may visit any number of the gardens listed on the ticket during the designated time frame. Each person must show his or her ticket for admission to the private properties. Some gardens will also have food and baked goods for purchase.

Proceeds from the tour will go toward repairs to the church's parking lot. For tickets or further information, email smitabo@comcast.net or call 717-354-4686, ext. 3.

In addition to church services, Our Lady of Lourdes hosts several public activities, such as bingo, a community yard sale, and a holiday bazaar.
