| FEBRUARY 25, 2013 -- The Hillstown Grange is holding a Soup-N-Garden event on Thursday, February 28. Doors open at 6:00 p.m. for our homemade soup dinner followed by a gardeners’ forum about getting the garden started. Some of the soups will be made from this winter’s root cellar produce featuring Pumpkin and Garden Vegetable Soup.
The Agricultural Committee plans to announce this year’s special gardening contests and free seeds will be available. Also a gardening discussion with question and answer time will start at 7:30 p.m. giving all gardeners a chance to talk and dream about our 2013 gardens. Bring your favorite seed catalogs to share. Great for novice or first time gardeners to learn from the old pros. Remember, in less than a month we can plant our peas!
The Hillstown Grange is located at 617 Hills Street, East Hartford, CT. Located in the Hillstown corner of East Hartford, Glastonbury, and Manchester since 1888. The Grange is the oldest Agricultural group in the United States.
Free event, so come spend some time with fellow gardeners and enjoy some home made soup.
