WATSONVILLE – The Santa Cruz County Fairgrounds on East Lake Avenue is 105 beautiful flower filled acres that seems to peak right about opening day of the annual September fair. This array of flowering beauty doesn’t happen by accident but starts with the annual flower planting day.
But there is something new this year and the new is two. Two days of flower planting are planned with Zinnias to go into the well prepared flower beds on Thursday, June 26, 2014. The second of two days will focus on Marigolds and Petunias on July 17, 2014.
Anyone interested in spending a few short hours either day is encouraged to come out to the Fairgrounds at 2601 East Lake Avenue and get a little dirt on their hands. Bring the family for what is a very nice way to spend some quality time in a very beautiful setting. Oh and bring a garden tool along if you have one. The Heritage Foundation will serve the traditional hot dog dinner for all who help.
