Winning poster design for 2020 Common Ground Country Fair highlights native flowers, pollinators - Bangor Daily News

Kevin Martin’s winning design featuring his beloved Dexter heifers. “It was such a fun process applying,” Grannis said. “It’s really cool that they do it. Not only do they support Maine farming communities, but artists as well. I think that’s such a good thing.” The fair sells thousands posters every year, plus other paraphernalia featuring the winning design. The winning artist receives a $2,500 prize, a MOFGA membership and an article in MOFGA’s quarterly publication. Around 2,000 volunteers that are each given a T-shirt with the design, and the fair has more than 60,000 attendees annually, all of whom could potentially buy merchandise with Grannis’s design (Boucher said she plans to get one herself — maybe even two). Grannis is most excited about the poster signing at the fair. She said she is already seeing “so many lovely comments” on social media, but she wants to interact with the fair-going community herself. “I’m curious to see how people respond to the art,” she said. “I want the farming community and people involved to enjoy it. It definitely feels like I’m giving back to my community.” The 44th annual Common Ground Country Fair will be held Sept. 25-27, but the 2020 poster is available for purchase now through MOFGA’s online Country Store.

Wedding flowers from Saturday night repurposed to brighten the lives of seniors, patients by Sunday morning

Rather than let the blossoms molder or be carted away by dexterous aunts with a sharp eye for fancy flora, the bride and groom had arranged for the beauties to be collected by Forget Me Knot (as in tying the knot) Flowers, a nonprofit that repurposes wedding flowers into "bedside bouquets" to brighten the rooms of sick, elderly or hurting souls. ELIZABETH ROBERTSON Tom Davis of Forget Me Knot Flowers movings around the Ballroom at the Ben on Saturday night, post-wedding reception, collecting the centerpieces and other flowers that would have a new purpose by Sunday. "When I deliver the flowers," said Leona Davis, a Haddonfield woman whose house the soccer girls had gathered in, "I talk about love to the people getting them. I want to make a real connection to people who are lonely." Davis created Forget Me Knot about two years ago. Wedding flowers are imbued with enough good feeling, Davis, 66, believes, that their stalks and petals can easily morph from Saturday night decoration to sick-room adornment. Davis and her husband, Tom, 66, a senior director of a Florida-based company that manufactures electronic components, can transport flowers to a nursing home before the married couple can reach their honeymoon destinations. "Oh, my God, these flowers smell so good," said Davis, a music teacher at Bells Elementary School in Washington Township. Each weekend for the last 20 months, a different volunteer group has crowded into the Davis basement to give wedding flowers a second life. Social media and old-fashioned word of mouth convey the call for help. The cou...

Holiday Cheer Takes Root at Poinsettia Farm in Woodstock

Illinois that cultivate them, as we found out when we visited a poinsettia farm in Woodstock. Bob Kolze fashions wreaths with the dexterity of someone who has spent a lifetime working with evergreens.Kolze’s dad actually got his start in 1949, selling lilacs from a farm stand in Palatine. The family has sold vegetables and flowers, then Christmas trees, ever since. Together, they built a greenhouse in Woodstock, which opened in 1997, from scratch. But it wasn’t until 2003 that Kolze’s Corner Garden began to grow poinsettias. And not just your run-of-the-mill reds.“These here winter rose, right here, I think are one of the most unique because it’s actually a poinsettia that has a double bract,” Kolze says as he points to a table of potted poinsettias that are deep red in color, with “bracts” that look more like a clusters of rose petals than the plant’s trademarked spear-shaped plumes. “I think people like them because they’re different.”(The colorful part of a poinsettia is actually the “bract,” which surrounds a centerpiece yellow flower.)Other plants in the 5,000-strong sea of poinsettias filling the half-acre building appear marbled, speckled, dipped or dyed. There’s “Ruby Frost,” “Green Envy,” “Ice Punch,” “Pink Ruffles,” “Jingle Bell Rock,” “Poly Pink,” and – Kolze’...
