Green Thumb Festival Planned

October 11, 2012

The 14th Annual Green Thumb Festival will be held this Saturday at the Escambia County Extension Service.

Escambia County Master Gardeners will be on hand with lots of expert advice, plants for sale and educational programs. Children can create a bug jar, birdseed hand prints to feed garden birds and plant a seed to take home.

Participants can learn how to build a raised bed for growing fall and winter vegetables, how to build a compost bin from recycled wooden pallets, and how to make a living herb wreath.

The program will take placeĀ  Saturday, October 13, from 8 a.m. until noon at 3740 Stefani Road. For more information, call (850) 475-5230.
