When we planned our itinerary for the garden centre tour, I was aware of the Weeping Ash Garden associated with the Bents garden centre. I made sure to schedule our trip to Bents for the third Sunday of the month so that I could tour this garden.
Weeping Ash Garden was begun in 1990 when John Bents retired from the family business. Since then he has nurtured Weeping Ash Garden which is located directly across the side parking lot from the main facility.
It is open to the public on every 3rd Sunday of the month from January to November. When we visited Mr. Bents was there in the garden visiting with the public, telling stories of the family and the business.
