It’s hard to believe we’re in October and that fall on the North Shore is in full swing! As a North Shore Real Estate agent, I love being able to highlights various events and attractions that the North Shore has to offer. It allows me to offer my clients a full experience of what living on Chicago’s North Shore is all about.
For those of you who are interested in moving to the North Shore or you currently live in one of its’ charming cities such as Winnetka, Glencoe, Highland Park, Northbrook or Deerfield; you won’t want to miss this upcoming event at the Chicago Botanic Garden in Glencoe. If you haven’t visited this stunning 385 acre garden, this weekend is the perfect time to do so! You’ll not only be able to enjoy some of the season’s greatest activites, but can take part in the 13th Annual Bulb sale as well! Take a look!

13th Annual Bulb Sale
- Just a few steps away in the Regenstein Center, visitors will find the perfect bulbs for their gardens at the 13th annual bulb sale, featuring more than 200 varieties of daffodils, tulips, alliums, and other specialty bulbs. The bulbs are from Holland, Scotland, and the United States, brought to you just in time for fall planting. The annual bulb sale is presented by the Woman’s Board of the Chicago Horticultural Society. The Woman's Board is in its first year of "Growing the Future," a $1 million pledge to the Chicago Botanic Garden. Proceeds for 2012 will support the Garden’s Green Youth Farm and Windy City Harvest community gardening programs.
