Master Gardener Plant Event
May 16th, 2014
May 17th is the sixth annual University Extension plant sale. The free event takes place at the Hopkins Pavilion. The featured seedlings are generally unavailable in local garden shops because they are winners of the statewide Master Gardener Trials. Lots of experts will be around to answer questions and offer advise about Minnesota gardening. Doors opens at 9:00AM and proceeds benefit Master Gardener community programs.

It’s Rhubarb Pie Time
May 5th, 2014
It’s finally time for Rhubarb Pie this year! Always a sign that Spring has finally arrived when the rhubarb is up and there’s enough to pick to make a pie. I’m fortunate that Lindsay comes from a long line of great pie-makers and just a quick trip to Lunds for ice cream appears to be the only thing standing in the way of my favorite dessert tonight!
Happy Spring, finally.
