LILYFEST

The 14th annual Lilyfest is taking place this weekend, July 8-10th. We went 2 years ago and hope to stop by again this year. It is held at the Bishop home in the Hocking Hills, 13200 Little Cola Road, Rockbridge, OH. If you are particularly interested in shade gardening, this is the event for you. The large grounds have been landscaped in a pine forest that was "cleared" by an ice storm. Gorgeous lilies and hostas.

In addition to walking the grounds, you will be entertained by a variety of musical groups. Be sure to check the web site at www.lilyfest.com for performance times. Over 60 fine artists and craftspersons will be displaying their work, and selling it too. Bring cash or checks because credit cards are not always accepted. OSU Extension trained master gardeners will be on hand, so bring your gardening questions. Plus various annuals, perennials, water plants and dried flowers will be on sale.

Food will be provided by Annie's Cheescake of Lancaster.

No charge for admission, but donations accepted for educational funds. No pets, please.
