Spring has gardeners’ green thumbs itching – to shop as well as plant. Gardeners are especially in the mood to learn – and get moving outdoors.
Saturday in Roseville, find plenty of inspiration (and great buys) at the Garden Faire, hosted by the UC Master Gardeners of Placer County at Maidu Community Center. "Healthy Garden, Healthy You" is the theme for this year's event.
Set for 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. April 5, this indoor-outdoor event will be packed with hands-on workshops, expert speakers, demonstrations, plants for sale and fun vendors. Admission and parking are free.
The Garden Faire will have activities for little gardeners, too, with a “Kids Korner.”
Got garden questions? Master gardeners will be on hand to offer advice.
“This free, educational event will be a fun outing for the whole family,” say the master gardeners. “Everyone from beginner gardeners to long-time gardening fanatics will find something of interest.”
Maidu Community Center is located at 1550 Maidu Drive, Roseville.

We learned today that the Burbank Urban Garden (BUG) has to postpone its big plant sale by one week, moving it from April 5 to April 12. Same time, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. "Due to multiple factors, many beyond our control" was cited as the reason on the BUG's Facebook page.
Luther Burbank High School is at 3500 Florin Road. This is always a great sale of student-raised flower, vegetable and herb plants.
