Businesses During Coronavirus: Flower Truck Launches 2nd Season - Babylon Village, NY Patch

Coffee to offer a special bundle for Mother's Day. She also partnered with North Fork Doughnut Co, Bango Bowls and Coastal Kitchen and Cocktail in Bay Shore for a Mother's Day Brunch package. "There's strength in partnering with like-minded businesses," Rutigliano said. Rutigliano says she wants people to know they are still open and ready to serve the community. While weddings have been cancelled, Rutigliano said she still has delivered small bouquets and boutonniere for people who chose to have smaller "quarantine" or "social-distancing" weddings during this time. The business is also booking events for the fall and next year, with the hope that the flower truck season will start sooner rather than later. "Stay strong, hang in there, we're here for you to bring a little bit of joy during these times and we're all in this together and we all have to support each other and the more we can look after our small businesses and help out our community the better," she said.

Brian J. Cantwell: Turn a Skagit Tulip Festival tour into a good day of biking, hiking

Snee Oosh Road (a runner-up for good road names). At 3 miles, watch for the small parking lot on the right; Discover Pass required.— Padilla Bay Shore Trail is a 21/4-mile dike-top path for pedestrians and cyclists that explores what is considered the most diverse, least-disturbed and most biologically productive of all major estuaries feeding the Puget Sound basin — despite the proximity of Anacortes oil refineries. Padilla and nearby Samish Bay support one of the largest known wintering populations of peregrine falcons in North America.From Highway 20, go north on Bayview Edison Road 0.8-mile to a trailhead. (Another trailhead is at 11404 Bayview Edison Road.)Follow your explorations with a stop at the nearby Breazeale Interpretive Center of the Padilla Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, whose research spotlights the shallow bay’s 8,000-acre eelgrass meadow, the second largest on North America’s Pacific Coast. It’s treasured as a nursery for juvenile salmon, crab and herring (10441 Bayview Edison Road; free).Raise a glassEnd up back in La Conner, where there are plenty of choices for lunch or an apres-tulip snack, with a chance to raise a glass to the floriculture gods.La Conner Brewing Co. (117 S. First St., laconnerbrewery.com), is one of my favorite spots (ahh, the garlic rosemary potato wedges), with its own tonsil-pleasing brews. Or head for La Conner Pub & Eatery (formerly La Conner Tavern, which fit it better) if you prefer to look out at boats passing on Swinomish Channel (702 First St., laconnertavern.com).And, of course, toast your obsession, your awe, your once-a-year love affair with flower farming.©2018 The Seattle Times—————TO SUBSCRIBE TO ADVENTURE AND FITNESSThis column/content is for subscribers only.

Flower Show exhibits offer advice on protecting watershed

Watershed," which offers a scaled down version of the path of the Delaware River, from headwaters in the Pocono Mountains, to the Delaware bay shore where the river empties into the Atlantic Ocean. To demonstrate how the river becomes polluted during that 388-mile stretch, 1,200 plastic tubes hang from the ceiling, their color transitioning along the way."Here the tubes are more blue," said exhibit guide Cari Wild, of the New Jersey Natural Lands Trust, pointing to the tubes at the headwaters. "As the water works through the watershed, you have streams bringing agricultural runoff and stormwater runoff. You're adding sedimentation and other kinds of pollutants into the river, so you have an addition of (green and gray) color."On the bottom of each tube is a mirror reflecting the visitors below, which Wild said represents the role we each play in affecting the Delaware."It's seeing yourself reflected in the watershed: What you do, your actions, contribute to the health of the watershed," she said.Wild said the issues facing Bucks and Burlington counties, along the middle stretch of the river, are primarily agricultural and stormwater runoff, and some industrial discharges. Significant pollution stems from towns struggling to control "combined sewer overflows," which occur when rains overwhelm sewer pipes and cause waste to run untreated into waterways.Wild said residents can limit these pollution sources by installing a rain barrel at their home, using permeable pavers for landscaping, buying recyclable products, limiting pesticide use, and even picking up after their dogs.Elsewhere, other exhibitors offered additional advice. An installation made by environmental design students at Temple University's Ambler campus focused on the Schuylkill River, highlighting its chronological journey from marshland to coal shipping to lock system to the present."Most people don't know the Schuylkill River is actually tidal," said Ciara Vellers, a junior at Temple and landscape architecture major. "It's hidden within the city, there's concrete walls on all sides."Villers urged Delaware Valley residents to preserve forestland in order to limit erosion and sedimentation from polluting the watershed, to redouble their efforts not to litter, and to use native plants that promote healthy soil, which also protects drinki...
