Bugs and Bees Day
Summer is "buzzing along" way too fast!! Join us this Saturday for Bugs and Bees Day as we celebrate all those little (and some big) things that fly and crawl. Enjoy the marvels of a living bee hive provided by beekeeper David Pease, who will be on hand to answer questions on bee keeping and offer samples of local raw honey. Dr. Bugman will present a hands-on learning experience like no other using a variety of exotic bugs, reptiles, and amphibians from 9:30-11:30. Fresh, delicious produce is reaching its peak of availability. As always there is something for the entire family to enjoy at the market.
Music this week
We welcome back Glenn Roth
Glenn is a finger-style guitarist, his thumb riding the bassline and the melody driving all. His compositions suggest multiple guitars, but it’s really just one guy, ten flying fingers, one instrument. All instrumental, Glenn’s songs suggest moods and narratives that compel the listener to fill in the details. Bring a chair, sit under the trees, relax and enjoy this incredible guitarist.
