Yard of the Month

Yard of the Month August 2020

Johnny Szklarski, the lead gardener at our August Junius Heights Historic District Yard of the Month, gets great support from parents Jennifer and John, and brother Charlie. They’ve lived in their handsome Craftsman home at 5527 Worth for 13 years. Johnny, with seeds he’s collected, began the garden as a spring project at Peak Prep, and hummingbirds arrived as we took photos. Charlie starts 6th grade at Long Middle School this fall.

Yard of the Month July 2020

Our July Yard of the Month, at 5326 Junius, belongs to Eleanor and Eric Graham.  They moved to Junius Heights four years ago, and Eric now serves on the JHHD board. Their original duplex was built in 1920 and is a century old this year! Eric says Eleanor is the real gardener, and that he simply keeps the bird bath and feeder filled.
