Gardening madness, of course.
March tends to be quite the month for gardening events and seminars. Its also a good time to begin starting indoor seedlings while anxiously awaiting mild enough weather to plant peas, radishes and leafy veggies outside.
There are LOTS of events in the area next month relating to gardening, permaculture, and small farming...so if you happen to find yoruself with some free weekend time check these out!
This Saturday, February 13, from 10:00am-1:00 pm, Syracuse Grows is presenting Gardening in Syracuse on the first floor of the Bob Cecile Community Center. It is free to the public and is offering three fantastic workshops.
The 3rd annual NYS Small Farms Summit will be held in Ithaca on March 3rd from 9:30-3:00 pm. It is free and open to all!
Alchemical Nursery will be hosting the 2010 Upstate NY Permaculture Gathering on Saturday, March 13 from 9:30am - 5:00 pm at The Gear Factory, 200 S Geddes Street, Syracuse. For more information see their MeetUp site.
And, the event I am most excited for is CNY Blooms, the Syracuse garden show! The weekend of March 3-7 at the OnCenter. Tickets are $10. I haven't found an updated speaker schedule, but based on last years presentations I expect this year's event will be just as worthwhile.
I know I'll be at CNY Blooms on Friday, so if you are too be sure to say Hello! And should you attend one of these events, or another fabulous gardening function be sure to share.
Be well,
Elizabeth
