Starting March 25, 2021

"It is spring again. The earth is like a child that knows poems by heart.”- Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926), Bohemian-Austrian poet and novelist.

Spring has officially arrived! While we eagerly await more outdoor indicators, greenhouses are gearing up for the season. Scroll down to discover a few upcoming flora-themed events, including a planter workshop hosted by Flowerland Growers next week (cover photo courtesy of their Facebook page), plus opportunities to sign up for local CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) programs can be found here.

Wishing a blessed Passover, Palm Sunday and Easter to those who celebrate, and Happy Spring - and Happy Wanderings - to all!
