Growing Green Festival

Buffy at Green Paths Florida contacted me and asked if I would extend an invitation to all Central Florida Gardener subscribers to their first upcoming Growing Green Festival.

This free indoor-outdoor event features presentations, activities, resources, living plants, great food, horse manure, live music and even an award-winning Sundance Film Festival movie about dirt (http://www.dirtthemovie.org/).

Here's what you'll find at the festival...
backyard gardening - butterfly plants - community gardens - composting - container gardens - CSAs - exotic invasives - fruit trees - herbs - green garden design - kids' garden projects - native plants - rain barrels - veggies - wildlife habitats

Saturday, February 6th
Noon to 5 PM
Movie screening - 5 to 7 PM
Unity of Martin County
211 SE Central Parkway, Stuart

Sound like a lot of fun!

Hi there,

Just a quick heads up that my blog's name/address has changed :)

It used to be GardeningFool but the new name and address is:

www.GetSoiledNow.com

Just in case you want to update it on your side bar...if you can't no biggie, I just thought I'd let you know...have a lovely day! ☺

GetSoiled...Thank you for updating your blog address. I made the correction on my blogroll, but somehow you ended up being listed at the bottom instead of alpha order. I think it has something to do with the character in front of your name??? You have a great day, too.
