Inkberry leafminer adults are emerging. While calendar dates can vary by several weeks from year to year, bloom time and insect emergence are very closely and consistently linked. Coinciding with spring blooms and spring insects is the emergence of the spring gardeners, busily planning out their spring by the occurrence of local events. Here are a few garden-related events you won't want to miss. This yearly event, held at one of the area's best parks, will feature 30 craft and plant vendors in the historic mansion, as well as 40 outside vendors, and a courtyard cafe.
Admission is free.
Proceeds benefit the club's scholarship and youth gardening programs. Stan Hywet's two-day plant sale features many outside vendors as well as educational exhibits and information. Due to popular demand, the Ohio State University Master Gardeners are bringing the self-guided garden tour back to town, this year featuring seven private gardens in the Akron area. Denise Ellsworth is a horticultural educator with Ohio State University Extension. Include your phone number.
