There is something magical about putting your hands in the soil. The smell of the earth, the warmth of the sun on your back, the simple act of planting something and watching it grow. Gardening has a way of grounding us - pun intended.
Join us Saturday, May 16th from 9am to noon at Market Park, 72 Maple St in Ellington for our Gardening Grows the Spirit market - a celebration of all things green, growing, and good for the soul.
Browse a beautiful selection of locally grown garden plants. Find flowers, fruits, vegetables, and herbs from the farmers and growers who know them best. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just starting out, you'll find everything you need to get your hands dirty and your garden going.
Not sure where to start? Stop by and chat with the UConn Extension Master Gardeners, who will be on hand to offer friendly, knowledgeable advice on everything from soil health to what grows best in a Connecticut garden.
Bring the little ones! Kids are invited to take part in a free planting activity and bring their very own creation home to nurture and grow. There is no better way to introduce a child to the joy of gardening.
