Music and Pie

This Saturday, October 18, I'll be playing old-time tunes with some friends at the Gateway Greening Harvest Fair and Garlic Day. The event takes place from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM at their Bell Garden at 3871 Bell Avenue, just a few blocks north of the Fox Theater neighborhood. As well as our jam session, there'll be activities for the kids and free garlic cloves for planting. They also have a pie contest that has to be tasted to be believed! You can also walk around the Bell Garden and see what's been growing there this year. Very impressive!

Gateway Greening is a terrific organization that works within the St. Louis Metro community to set up community gardens, introduce gardening and green living to city school students, and other gardening/self-sufficiency projects. They're good folks and are doing good work.

A bunch of us from the Folk School of St. Louis played at this event last year and had great fun. The music was good, the people were a lot of fun, and the pot luck and pie contest were amazing.

Come on down and join us this year for what promises to be a real big time.
