Do you want to grow your own fruit and vegetables?
Are you looking for new ideas in garden design?
Would you like to turn your home into a cozy self-sufficient paradise?
What are you waiting for? Block off May 1st, 2nd, and 3rd on your calendar. Do not schedule other commitments for this weekend because you’ll be plenty busy at the 2009 L.A. Garden Show. Attend lectures, meet with landscape designers and fill your wagon with plants! ArtPlantae Books joins nurseries, plant societies, artists, and home & garden specialty merchants in the Marketplace to celebrate A Festival of Flavors.
ArtPlantae Books will encourage you to Observe, Connect and Create when you visit us. We have made arrangements for unique learning opportunities and activities. Here is a snapshot of what we have planned:
Saturday, May 2: Attention Young Gardeners! Meet the author and the illustrator of Wiggle and Waggle, Caroline Arnold and Mary Peterson. You will also meet author, illustrator and educator, Marianne D. Wallace.
Sunday, May 3: Meet the authors of The Urban Homestead. Kelly Coyne and Erik Knutzen will be signing their guide to self-sufficient living in the urban landscape. After you learn how to “grow food anywhere”, be inspired to draw and paint your harvest with botanical artist, Sally Jacobs who will be demonstrating her craft this afternoon.
See you in the garden!
