Friends, all,
As I write this it is below the comfort zone outside. My
paws freeze to the ground and my whiskers become icy. I am told spring is just
around the corner. I have looked. It isn’t.
Minnesota Legacy Foundation, dedicated to preserving
Minnesota’s art and cultural heritage, is offering hope in the form of a free
program entitled “2013 Premier
Presentation of Minnesota’s Grand Peony History” presented by Harvey
Buchite.
He will be in Pine River
Library Wednesday, February 20 at 2:00PM. Harvey and his wife Brigitte own Hidden
Springs Flower Farm of southeastern Minnesota, where they specialize in growing
over 600 varieties of peonies. Harvey has served as president of the American
Peony Society. He knows his peonies!
This program is not only interesting, but
will help all of us here in the frozen north to remember what comes after
winter. Spring and flowers!
