Rutgers Cooperative Extension of Middlesex County will host its EARTH Center Garden, Arts and Music Festival. The event will take place rain or shine at 42 Riva Ave, Davidsons Mill Pond Park, South Brunswick, NJ

The day will be filled with family-oriented activities, live arts displays, and local musical acts.

Throughout the afternoon, Rutgers Master Gardeners and Environmental Stewards will offer advice on horticulture and stewardship while guiding visitors through various teaching gardens and learning projects.

Examples of their work include: a children’s garden, vegetable display garden, and the popular butterfly house. Mini lectures on horticultural topics and culinary techniques will also be offered.

Visitors can also get a close look at the Rows for the Hungry Project which in recent years has grown and donated close to 30 tons of fresh, first quality produce to local food banks in Middlesex County. The scale and precision of this operation is sure to inspire community minded residents to join their volunteer efforts.  

Join the “Greatest of the Garden” competition, by bringing the homegrown produce you are most proud of; categories may include: Largest Tomato, Largest Zucchini, Strangest Heirloom, Biggest Sunflower Bloom, and Best Likeness to a Celebrity or Historical Figure.
