Mum Festival, August 28St. Fiacre Day (Patron St. of the Garden)
As summer is waning and a wonderful autumn season is nearing it is time that the beautiful mums we have grown all summer have their time to bloom. This is a lovely time to come to the farm for a day to celebrate the time of harvest. The date this year is Sat. Aug. 28. At our Mum Festival we have the Keeping Room and surrounding area filled with craft booths and some antiques. There is no charge to attend or exhibit (see Exhibiting at Stream Cliff). Also free presentations will be given under the canopy area. At 10:30 Greg Manning, horticulturist, will lecture on Planting Fall Perennials. At 1:30 Betty Manning will present cheese and wine pairings with samples and will also talk about Historic Plants for the Modern Garden. Food will be available at Twigs & Sprigs Tearoom. If you are bringing a large group (8 or more) for lunch, please call for reservations. Plan to have a day of relaxation and joy. |
