The Friends of the UT Gardens Blooms Day Garden Festival & Marketplace is this weekend.

Saturday, June 28th, 9AM to 6PM
Sunday, June 29th, 11AM to 5PM

The UT Gardens are on Neyland Drive at the Ag Campus. The gardens are absolutely gorgeous. The event includes educational workshops, entertainment, kids activities, and a marketplace of various home & garden vendors.

Note: I believe UT Credit Union is sponsoring free tickets for this years event to celebrate the Garden's 25th anniversary.

Prettiest spot in Knoxville. I was there Sunday with my 18 year old. The walk up to Tyson Park from there along Third Creek is worth the stroll, too. Lots of turtles sunning themselves, fish jumping. Of course there were also lots of Canadian Geese...down here without papers, taking jobs away from American Geese and quite literally crapping all over our country.

Knoxville Regional Transportation Planning Organization is having a Blooms and Bikes Ride in conjunction with this event.

I'd rather be cycling.

This is a great stop when riding the Third Creek Greenway. The only drawback is you can't make much of a haul when you're on a two-wheeler.
