Leaden skies didn’t stop garden enthusiasts from making the rounds of the Zonta Pond & Garden Tour in Chatham on Friday and Saturday. Kate and Brad Blonde opened their backyard to people, showcasing colourful flowers and plants, and unique outdoor décor including some hand-painted and carved gourds acting as bird houses. The tour is a major fundraiser for the work Zonta does in Chatham-Kent throughout the year.
