Govalle Park will once again be the site of A Passion for Plants: An East
Austin Garden Fair on the last weekend of Spring Break. The theme of the
fourth annual fair is "Gardening the Earth-Kind Way". This FREE public
gardening event will feature hands-on demonstrations of how to dig a garden
bed, harvest rain water, grow fruits and vegetables organically, create
wildlife food and shelter, start plants from cuttings and seeds, and how to
cut back on chemicals that harm our environment and ourselves. Come for the
free advice from our on-site experts to answer all of your gardening
questions, for tips on living healthier and happier, and for fun educational
activities for kids to get them out in nature in your own back yard! Visit
our booths and get a free plant! Get ready for Spring with all the free
information you need to start your own Earth-Kind garden, whether it's one
plant in a pot or a whole yard full, and then relax with a free massage!

Association, the Sustainable Food Center, the Green Corn Project, and the
Holistic Education and Health Network.
