At the last FBCG meeting, Diane announced that the Heritage Garden at the Govenor's Residence on Parkview Avenue was having quite the Halloween Party on Saturday, October 17, 2009 and she wasn't kidding. I just received the brochure (which you can review for yourself at
http://www.governorsresidence.ohio.gov/GreenHalloweenPoster.pdf).
The Friends of the Governor's Residence and Heritage Garden are sponsoring a FREE shindig which includes:
* The Governor’s giant pumpkin patch (probably more successful than my pitiful patch at the SACG);
* Instruction about growing your own garden;
* Decorating (and keeping) your own pumpkin and/or gourd;
* Instruction on why ladybeetles, bats, worms and other earth creatures are so important to our environment;
* Demonstrations on composting and recycling;
* Guided tours (on-the-hour) of the Heritage Garden; and
* Yummy bison burgers and cider
For security purposes, reservations for the event are required. Please RSVP to paigebilotta@gmail.com or 614.644-7644 x5 to identify all that will be attending. Photo IDs and bags will be checked prior to grounds entry. Event takes place rain or shine.
