Area gardening
events to be held
There are two big fun events com
ing up soon in Fayetteville.
The first is the Spring Nature Fair
in Clark Park. The affair is from 10
a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, April 13.
Although I’ve never been to this
event. I’ve heard it has much to offer.
The Spring Nature Fair consists of
booths put up by various groups in the
community. Come, enjoy and find out
what is going on.
Of course, the main feature will be
a table set up by the Cumberland and
Hoke County master gardeners. The
master gardeners have just completed
36 hours of horticulture training at the
Extension Office in Fayetteville. Top
ics covered include insects and dis
eases, lawn maintenance, pruning,
composting and soils to name a few.
With classroom instruction behind
them, now is the time they practice
what was taught.
At the Spring Nature Fair, master
gardeners will feature a plant clinic to
identify insects, diseases and answer
questions. They will be glad to diag
nose problems in your turf, flower
beds and shrubs. North Carolina Ex
tension publications on horticulture
related topics will also be available.

Extension Agent
Soil sampling boxes will be available,
or bring soil samples to the Spring
Event. Having soil samples taken will
tell you what the soil pH is, indicating
if lime is needed or not.
Soil sample results will also indi
cate if fertilizer is required and how
much. The soil sample is a free service
provided by the North Carolina (Coop
erative Extension Service.
The other big event is the Dogwood
Festival. The Cape Fear Botanical
Garden will be decked out in its best
spring finery when it flings open the
gates for Dogwood Daze ’96 on Satur
day, April 20 from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The day-long program will offer plenty
of family fun with something to please
everybody: live music on stage at the
new Gartlen Gazebo; art exhibits by
students and the pros; Kay Hindsley
with everything you need to get hooked
on bluebirds and butterflies; Flora the
Clown with fact paints and balloons
for the kids; and Dr. Floyd Waddle
with his snakes. Other critters the kids
might bump into along the way are
Limmie the Tree, Smokey Bear and
Willy Water Drop. Kids of all ages
will enjoy a view of the Garden from
Nancy’s Hay Wagon as well as walk
ing tours of the Garden trails — with
or without a guide.
Shopping has never been better for
everything from orchids, herbs and
day lilies to a garden shop stocked with
garden-related items from our own
gift shop and with items donated-by
local businesses and individuals. The
Master Gardeners will again be an
swering questions on horticulture re
lated items, and selling all types of
wonderful plant material. Bring the
kids to carry home lots of new plants.
Did we mention food and drinks? Lots
of both will be for sale, but if you are
into picnicking, bring your blanket
and basket, plop down in the middle of
it all and enjoy!!
To get into the beautiful new Gar
den Gates is only $5 all day for adults
(members $3), kids under 12 free.
Use care when saving food
How long will food keep in the
refrigerator?
That depends on several factors —
the freshness of the food when it
reaches the grocery store, the length of
time it is in the store before you pur
chase it and the way the food was
processed.
We, as consumers, can not do much
about how the food is handled before
w e purcha.se it but we can control what
we purcha.se the storage conditions in
our homes.
Keep the refrigerator clean. Do a
quick check each day for foods that
need to be discarded. Clean shelves
and other surfaces with warm, soapy
w ater ev ery couple of weeks and wipe
Carol Birckhead
Director,
Hoke County
Cooperative Extension
up spills immediately. Sanitize the re
frigerator with a solution of one tea
spoon bleach to one quart of water to
clean spills and areas where food has
spoiled.
Raw meat, poultry and fish should
be wrapped securely or placed on a
tray and stored on the bottom shelf so
juices do not drip on other foods. Any
drips or leaks should be wiped up and
the shelf should be sanitized.
Use fresh meat, fish or poultry within
two days of purchase. Recommended
storage times for fresh meat are short. I
you want to keep these items longer,
wrap tightly, label and freeze.
Leftover foods should be refriger
ated immediately after a meal, in a
shallow, covered container. Cut large
pieces of meat or poultry into smaller
pieces. This allows these items to cool
quickly. Largequantitiesof stew, soup,
beans or similar foods should be chilled
quickly by placing the cooking con
tainer in a clean sink with ice water in
it. Stir frequently while the food cools,
then put in shallow containers, cover
and refrigerate or freeze.
