Next meeting Not Decided




Nobody had any ideas for July, so I don't know if we are meeting or not. We can always meet here, the gardens are pretty--but there wasn't much interest in that last year--people are busy with other things and on vacay and stuff, so I'm not sure what to do. If anyone has ideas, let's hear them. I want to head to Wavecrest sometime soon, so we can have a PIE day if anyone else wants to go along. Other than that I don't have any ideas. Let me know if anybody gets a brainwave.

Up and Coming FUN in Laporte County

Hi Folks--Rosie shared information with me about the following two events--she participates in them and they are both really nice--so get on the road these two weekends and go see Rosie!
First up--the Saturday of Labor Day weekend will be the Prairie Pride Harvest Market. This event has been around for 6 years and while I haven't been, I have heard very good things about it. The location is 3883 E. 700 N. Look for signs that say "Fawn Run Farm". If you want information you can call Dailey (219) 778-2809 or email fawnrunfarm@csinet.net. Hours are 9 to 4--and remember they are an hour different from us there. Hand work, antiques, plants, strolling musicians, food. Just as much fun as the Blueberry but not as dusty and no carnival rides :-)
The second event is on Sept. 18(Sat) and 19 (Sun) at the old Finley Farm in Laporte. 3855 W. Johnson Rd. Laporte. Hours are 9-4 Sat. and 12-5 Sunday. Once again, they are an hour different. For information on this one, the phone is (219) 325-9009. The name of this event is "Botanic Boutique". The farm is now called "Keepsake Farm".
Sounds like fun times two!
Hail to the dirt! FL
