The Augusta Garden Club is hosting a local event in conjunction with Historic Garden Week, with tours set for Saturday, April 18, at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. beginning at John Moxie Memorial Stadium in Staunton.

The shuttle tour begins just minutes from Downtown Staunton and features both city and country properties.

Tour homes include a stately Virginia mansion, an elegant postwar home, a Colonial Revival.
