You know spring is just around the corner when a Brooklyn horticultural event is on the agenda. In this case, it’s the 25th Anniversary of Making Brooklyn Bloom. It will take place tomorrow (March 10) from 10AM-4PM at the Brookly Botanic Garden and feature speakers, workshops and exhibits about greening neighborhoods and growing local fruits and vegetables. It’s being presented by the BBG (cherry blossoms in about six weeks, give or take!!!). The event is billed as:

the biggest Making Brooklyn Bloom event ever, and will focus on the burgeoning interest in urban agriculture in Brooklyn and the many benefits that urban greening-including growing fresh organic food-has on local communities. The free event offers hands-on workshops, speakers, and exhibits presented by regional experts who will present attendees with innovative, organic, home and community gardening ideas. The experts will also provide greening ideas for urban communities and discuss the community health benefits that derive from cultivating open green space and keeping a focus on local food.

The BBG says you should try to be there by 10.
