Tomorrow I am volunteering for the third extreme weather event held for Howard County High School Students. It should prove to be another fantastic event and I hope to get many pictures of the participants learning from all the amazing companies that give their time to expand the knowledge of our students.
As usual, the Howard County Conservancy field trip managers have put together an exciting array of activities, demonstrations and speakers to present for this day long event.
A few days later, I intend to immerse myself into the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival this Saturday and Sunday out at the Howard County Fairgrounds. I have never been around to take in the festival. One of the largest and best sheep and wool festivals in the USA and Canada.
Many farms in the area participate in this event. Like Breezy Willow , Catoctin Creek and Shepherds Manor Creamery.
Medomak Retreat Center has a booth. I so want to spend a week there at one of their “summer camps” for adults.
Landreth Seeds will be there. I hope to find something rare from them.
And, Greenbridge Pottery. Another local favorite when it comes to looking for unique gifts.
That’s all I recognize in this year’s catalogue but I probably missed a few more local farms and vendors. This festival is huge so if you want to go, be prepared for very large crowds.
I do intend to check out the lamb cooking demonstration, and maybe make the Sunday Brunch. See you there?
