Friday night excitement

Gardeners,

This is an invitation from the current GROW president, Penny, to attend a fun-fun bonfire extravaganza at her home this Friday (June 22).

Come early, and walk through my (weedy) gardens. Bring the kids. Well-behaved dogs (preferably with leash) are allowed.

Come later, and enjoy the fire, the lightning bugs, and perhaps an adult beverage.

Contact Penny for more information and to RSVP. If enough folks want to join the festivities, we'll set up the grill and have hamburgs and hots, too.

I can be reached at: paleololigo@gmail.com, paleololigo@yahoo.com, or 315-879-1123

Maplewood Rose Garden Festival

Hello Fellow Gardeners -

Looking for something to do this weekend? Check out the Maplewood Rose Garden.
Friday-Sunday (June 15-17)
28 Driving Park Ave 14613

Located off Lake Ave in the northwest area of the city, the Maplewood Rose Garden is one of the area's largest municipal Rose Garden. In its collection of more than 3,000 bushes you can find varieties from the antique 'Malmaison' to the most recent hybrids such as 'Princess Diana'. The roses fill more than 1 acre of garden with beautiful scent and color from early June nearly until Thanksgiving and outside the rose season the garden features bulbs, peonies, perennials and beautiful evergreens.

Rose enthusiasts will be sure to want to visit the Maplewood Rose Garden at the peak of bloom time, the second week in June. A three day festival highlights both the Garden and the surrounding neighborhood. Festival includes music, workshops, historic home and garden tours, gorge tours, children's activities, arts & crafts and more!"
