Dear Neighbors and Garden Walk Visitors, The Cooper-Young Garden Club welcomes you to the 6th Annual Cooper- Young Garden Walk, the largest garden walk in the Mid-South, May 15-16, from 9 am to 4 pm. The mission of the Garden Walk is to celebrate urban gardening and inspire residents and visitors to elevate their corner of the world with beauty, and provide a sanctuary for people, plants, and pollinators. The theme of this year’s walk is “Beauty, Health, and Sustainability.” Our walk is unique not only because of Cooper-Young’s quirky, eclectic gardens but because of its central location in the heart of Midtown Memphis.

The 90+ diverse gardens include imaginative urban home gardens and business green spaces, and an elementary school garden which will delight all the senses during the Garden Walk’s 2-day span. Enjoy engaging mini-talks on growing cutting flowers, vertical gardening, composting, making sauerkraut, and more. Additionally, have the pleasure of viewing beehives, free range chickens, and composting in action. Increase your nursery know-how at booths operated by Master Gardeners, the Herb Society, and many other garden educators and enthusiasts. After taking in the gardens, shop for garden-themed art and nourish yourself at Cooper-Young’s award-winning restaurants and breweries. Many will be offering discounts the day of the walk. Walk, bike, or drive to the gardens along tree-lined streets, now a nationally registered arboretum. It’s easy to experience what is fast becoming the best and largest urban garden walk in the South.

Refreshing outdoor patio ceiling ideas from Hunter We love the unique patios designed by the Cooper Young Garden Walk homeowners. There are so many patio design ideas and an abundance of styles. Whether you’re updating your Memphis home or a home out-of-town, you can extend your style from inside to outside with a few defining features. Pergolas and covered patios can easily be extensions of your home’s aesthetic. Ceiling fans are key comfort for any space and can be the finishing touch on your patio design. Our designers and engineers collaborate to come up with beautiful outdoor ceiling fans that include components to withstand humidity and rain, like our WeatherMax® outdoor fans. Our SureSpeed® guarantee also delivers airflow to keep you cool in the heat of Memphis summer. The possibilities are endless, but here are a few patio ceiling fan ideas to get you started. Choosing the right outdoor ceiling fan First, make sure you choose the right fan for the job. Not all outdoor fans are created equal. • Indoor-rated fans only work for indoor rooms. If you install an indoor fan outside, the fan will eventually malfunction. • Damp-rated fans are great for covered outdoor spaces like patios and porches exposed to mild elements like humidity. • Wet-rated fans are engineered to withstand being exposed to direct rain on pergolas. • WeatherMax outdoor fans are Engineered for the elements™. They feature ultra-durable materials that are salt-air and corrosion resistant and can withstand direct exposure to heavy rain. Modern outdoor ceiling fans Traditional outdoor ceiling fans utilized palm leaf blades and multi-arm lights. Our designers reimagined modern outdoor ceiling fans with looks that are sleek, stylish, and versatile. They’re also equipped with modern technology to make your space comfortable as well as good-looking. The Trimaran modern ceiling fan has a simple yet strong design paired with classic finishes. Its sleek design complements a variety of modern patio styles without overpowering your design. It fits with gallery-esqe patios with marble tile and a terrazzo table. Or it can go in tropical pergolas with monstera leaf pillows and rattan furniture. Built with WeatherMax, it can handle the tropical weather, too. See this one in person on the Andrew Michael Italian Kitchen patio! The Original ceiling fan Nothing cools like the Original, the Hunter Original®. The traditional beauty of the Original has graced thousands of patios since its introduction in 1906. Made with cast-iron and real-wood blades, this fan is known for lasting generations. We even provide a relocation kit, because so many people want to take their Original with them when they move. Feel the breeze of the Original at Huey’s downtown. Go big or go home For oversized outdoor spaces, you need an outdoor ceiling fan with the performance and style to match. The 72-inch Overton fan fits the bill. The ten-bladed design makes a statement while the rest of the design is understated enough to be used on any style patio, from modern industrial to contemporary country. It’s built with our SureSpeed® Guarantee, so you know your family will be cool and comfortable all summer long. Imagine this one on your own patio! There are plenty of stylish outdoor fan designs to help inspire your patio design ideas. Check out Hunterfan.com for more. 22
