Promising something for the entire family, Wake Forest’s inaugural Dirt Day will be held along South White Street in downtown Wake Forest on Saturday, April 5, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Kids will have a blast playing in an oversized sandbox or making wheatgrass containers for home windowsills. Adults will have the chance to learn about the newest techniques in gardening and composting, check out the newest in outdoor activity and camping gear, enjoy a beekeeping demonstration and visit with a variety of vendors offering an array of products and insight.
But that’s not all. Dirt Day participants can also spend time rubbing elbows with Master Gardeners and outdoor educators from the NC Museum of Natural History.
Offering unplugged music from roving minstrels, bands and bohemians and culinary delights from downtown’s wonderful assortment of restaurants and food vendors, Dirt Day offers the perfect opportunity to shake off the winter blues and get involved with an outdoor group that shares your interests.
