Dear Folks,
Coming up the end of the Month and in November!
Two Events at the Boyce Thompson Arboretum are coming up the end of October and in November. Mark Your Calendars!
Herb Festival Saturday October 24
11:00 AM - 3:00 pm "Herb is the word" during the final Saturday of October's
annual Fall Plant Sale fundraiser and we'll have a variety of herbs
available for purchase. This recurring Fall event is strategically
scheduled for late October to take advantage of optimal herb planting
time. Meet members of the Arizona Herb Association and browse items at their booth; learn about container gardening from Catherine 'The Herb Lady' Crowley, all beneath the shady grove of pistachio trees across from our Wing Memorial Herb Garden.
Arboretum Book Festival Saturday, November 21 I will be one of many authors there (Last year there were about 30 of us!) Meet authors from across southern Arizona, writers from genres
ranging from historical fiction and non-fiction, to mystery and
suspense, memoir and children's books. Our Autumn foliage remains
glorious in early December, here's a chance 'to meet the person behind
the pen' and take home personalized holiday gifts for bookworms on your
list. Plans for the day include readings by select authors, music; maybe
even a writing workshop!
Bring cash for a tasty lunch in our picnic area - Chef Eric & Terri of Tall Order Catering
will be grilling bratwursts for $4 each, burgers for $5 -- and
vegetarian chili at $3-a-bowl (cash only).
Visit our website in November for the agenda and list of
participating authors, or call BTA 520. 689. 2723
And, consider subscribing to my blog. This google group is not as user friendly for posting pictures and making a nice appearing post, so I am doing more posting on the blag then here. I will periodically post links back to the blog here, but you may find it more reliable to subscribe to the blog.
The subscription bar is in the upper right side bar on the blog, or you can use this link.
We should be through the current re-do on our heat by the beginning of next week and into the beautiful weather to get out in the garden more. Get your growing on!
