Our 2nd Beviamo Italian Wine Tasting is scheduled for March 6, 2016<\/p><\/div>\n

The Southside Place Community Garden is not just about growing vegetables, it\u2019s also about growing community. \u00a0One of the benefits of having a beautiful outdoor space is that we can use it as a gathering spot. Currently the Southside Place Community garden receives no funds from the City nor does it charge a membership fee. All of the money needed to build and maintain the garden comes from fundraisers and donations. Now that we have a fancy pergola donated by Lovett Homes, we can hold stylish events in the garden with ease.<\/p>\n

Last year’s party ended early due to rain.<\/p><\/div>\n

Our first spring event is a free laidback wine tasting and sale under the pergola on Sunday March 6, 4:30-7:00pm<\/strong>. \u00a0Beviamo wine distributors will be pouring a selection of Italian wines. You buy what you like for yourself and, if you are feeling generous, buy one to donate to the garden. This wine sale precedes the big, family-friendly garden party on April 24. Your donated wine will be served or allocated to the \u201cwine pull\u201d at the silent auction at the April 24th<\/sup> party. Cheese and light snacks will be served. In case of rain, the event will be moved to a neighbor\u2019s house.<\/p>\n

Singer John Curry will perform again April 24, 2016<\/p><\/div>\n

Our second spring even is the fourth annual Southside Place Community Garden Party on Sunday April 24 4:30-8:30pm<\/strong>. Not to be confused with the fancy, white linen, adult-only party in October, this casual p
arty is for the whole family. There will be food provided by local restaurants and this is a BYOB event, although some donated beer and wine (see above) will be provided. Like last year, we\u2019ll hold a silent auction, nutrition education for children, a ladybug release and book reading in the sunflower circles. New this year is a container planting station where you can create your own container garden for you to bring home. Guitarist and singer, John Curry, will be entertaining us with his tunes. Cost for this event is $20 per adult payable at the garden gate. Kids are free. Unlike last year, we have unanimously decided that this year THERE WILL BE NO RAIN. We have no backup plan to move this multifaceted party indoors, except maybe to scurry inside the fire station again.\"may<\/a><\/p>\n
