For the 9 years that we have owned our historic home in Kansas City, the front yard has been untamed and unintentional (otherwise known as a mess!). In August, we decided that had to change and today we finished the last touches. #happytobedone #martinifarm #unionhillgardentour

Today I attended the @unionhillgardentour and was stopped 5 times by people complimenting me on my brown linen Zadie Jumpsuit. And when they found out I made it….whoa! Think I will start to make another one, this time in peach! #zadiejumpsuit #papertheorypatterns #unionhillgardentour
What a lovely day with @susan_parrish_op wondering through Union Hill gardens & a historical tour of Union Cemetery where my greatx3 grandmother, Sophie, is buried. #unionhillgardentour
Today is the #UnionHillGardenTour and there are some food trucks here for the event. @swid27 and I wandered down to the @happybellykc and left with these delights. #BurntEndMacAndCheese and a #HBSeriousBurger that Jesse called top notch. They’re here near 30th and McGee today until 3pm. Get it while you can! PS their #fries are damn tasty. I’m stealing @swid27 - don’t tell him.

It’s time for the garden tour! – and we’ve been working around the cluck getting ready. This ensemble of eggs-cellent creatures are waiting to greet you at one of the gardens. They’re so graceful, they’re like poultry in motion. If we haven’t changed your mind with all these fowl puns, we’ll see you soon! #unionhillkc #unionhillgardentour #chickens #badchickenpuns #arethereanyGOODchickenpuns
Today’s the day! We look forward to seeing all of you! You can purchase tickets online OR pay in person. And do WATCH OUT for street construction on your way. You can still get to us – but there’s a lot of streetcar track work happening all along Main and other utility work happening throughout Union Hill, including 31st Street. Drive carefully, be patient and plan accordingly. #unionhillkc #unionhillgardentour #gardentour
Booked your ticket for the #unionhillgardentour ? Here's the primary place to check-in Sunday at 31st St. & Grand Ave. If you purchased tickets online, they are "will-call." When you check in for the tour, there will be a list with your name on it. Volunteers there will check your name off the list, give you a map of the tour, and a wristband showing that you have paid. Parking will be available in the lots on the northside of 31st Street on either side of Grand Avenue. There is also parking available at Union Cemetery, at El Torreon (31st and Gillham) and in underground parking garages off of Gillham north of 31st. On street parking in the neighborhood is very limited – particularly with some ongoing street/utility work, so we recommend parking in one of the lots at the perimeter and carpooling when possible! **NOTE** There is a lot of construction on Main Street due to work for the streetcar extension, so we recommend you plan accordingly.
It’s finally ALMOST here! And there’s still a little bit of time to save by getting your tickets online. Follow the link in our profile. See you tomorrow! #unionhillkc #unionhillgardentour #gardentour
These orange cone flowers are quite common in Kansas City. And lately this invasive species has blossomed all around Union Hill.

Parking is available in the lots on 31st Street on either side of Grand Avenue.
