Have you ever wondered when plants will bloom or insects will show up in your garden?  The Hardin County Master Gardener Volunteers will be holding a garden workshop to help the public understand when things happen in the garden. 

“What Time is It – A Phenology Program” will be presented by Bill Jones, who is a Hancock County Master Gardener Volunteer.  Phenology is the science of timing of flowering plants and when diseases and insects affect them. 

Knowing when things are about to happen in the garden, will allow for the gardener to know what to look for, and how to best plan and manage issues before they affect the plants.

The Inn at ONU offers two special "PaintINN" sessions this spring. Here's the details:

PaintINN this Spring at the Inn - Our first session will be a "Clay Pot" on Saturday, March 21, at 10 a.m.

You'll take an ordinary clay pot and turn it into a beautiful piece of art. While working, enjoy a Mimosa and a deluxe continental breakfast of hotel baked pastries and fresh berries. Please allow approximately two hours for this event.

The next Wednesday afternoon at the movies at ReStore is the showing of “Fireproof.”

The movie will be shown at 1 p.m., Wednesday, April 1 at ReStore, 210 N. Main St., Ada.

Fireproof is a 2008 American Christian drama film released by Samuel Goldwyn Films and Affirm Films, directed by Alex Kendrick, who co-wrote and co-produced it with Stephen Kendrick. The film stars Kirk Cameron, Erin Bethea and Ken Bevel.
