On this day, a bus load of Amish and Mennonite gardeners from Minnesota were viewing and ordering products for their greenhouses back home. On this special day, the Hort Couture Company provided a pig roast lunch for everyone in attendance. Liquid refreshments and snacks are available every day to keep people hydrated and nourished after a long day in the sun.
Rakers Trial Gardens is a must see in Michigan for anyone who has a garden or enjoys flowers. The gardens are open weekdays in July and August from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tours of the greenhouses with 15 acres under glass is an amazing inside look at the technology involved in producing flowers from seed to finished product.
Munro House Bed and Breakfast in Jonesville MI is the closest lodging facility to Rakers in Litchfield and offers special rates during the annual garden tour.

Mike, Nice website and article. We live about 1/2 N of Raker's and it is indeed a beautiful place in Summer and early Fall. I found your website by accident on Google while I was looking for a phone # for Madigan's. Ken Shelbourn
