The 2024 Noe Valley Garden Tour was another fabulous success! We had wonderful weather, many happy attendees, gracious garden hosts and dedicated garden greeters. We sold lots of raffle tickets too. A donation will be made from the proceeds to the James Lick Middle School, Slow Sanchez Gardens and the Noe Valley Town Square.
The Friends of Noe Valley would like to thank all those who volunteered to make the Tour such a success. We really could not have done it without support from our wonderful neighbors and friends!
