Over 15 Years of Water, Light, and Community Impact
For more than 15 years, the Water Garden Weekend Tour Chester County has been one of our favorite traditions at Turpin Landscape Design Build. What started as a simple idea—inviting the community to enjoy water features and outdoor living—has grown into something deeply meaningful.
Since partnering with the Chester County Food Bank in 2019, the tour has raised over $272,000. This year alone, we contributed $22,000 to help fight food insecurity in our community. The tour is not just about ponds and waterfalls—it is about people coming together to make a difference.
Gratitude to Our Hosts and Participants
We could not do this without the generosity of our hosts. They open their homes and gardens so others can be inspired. Their willingness to welcome neighbors and strangers alike is what makes this tour unique.
To our participants—thank you for showing up each year. Your enthusiasm, questions, and smiles as you enjoy the water features at dusk keep this event alive.
Thank You to Our Team and Families
Our Turpin Landscape team works tirelessly to prepare every detail. From lighting ponds to guiding buses and setting up food stations, they make sure each stop feels magical. To our families—thank you for standing beside us with love, energy, and support. None of this would be possible without you.
The Heart of the Event
Children mesmerized by koi under soft lights, couples sitting by fire features, and friends laughing beside waterfalls remind us why this event matters. It is about beauty, connection, and purpose. It is about turning a passion for water gardens into action that feeds families in need.
Looking Ahead
As we reflect on 15+ years of tours—and the $272,000 raised since 2019—we are filled with gratitude. Each year, the bar rises higher, not only in fundraising but also in the joy and unity that comes from gathering together.
On behalf of all of us at Turpin Landscape: thank you. Thank you to our hosts, participants, sponsors, employees, families, and every person who played a role in this journey. Together, we have turned a dream into a tradition that strengthens our community in lasting ways.
We look forward to the next Water Garden Weekend Tour. Together, we’ll keep the water flowing, the lights shining, and the giving growing.
