This year's Ojai Valley Lavender Festival celebrates survival as well as purple blooms

How to Design, Build and Maintain a Greywater Irrigation System for Your Home Garden" at noon. Artist and musician turned health advocate Amanda Mullins will present "Make Your Favorite Foods Nutritious and Delicious" at 2 p.m. Money raised from the festival will go toward agriculture-related scholarships and grants for area residents. This year, the festival awarded a $2,000 student scholarship and $7,000 in community grants to local homeowners to restore landscaping destroyed or damaged by the Thomas Fire, including the Luboffs. "These people lost basically everything, so we were really thrilled to be able to provide a little something," Volland said. "It wasn't huge, but it was just enough to be able to replant something of what they lost." For the Luboffs, the fire has taken a toll both economically and emotionally, said Tony Luboff. But the family is looking forward to returning to the lavender festival this year and eventually regaining what they've lost. "The Thomas Fire did not help us one bit, but it's going to make us stronger," he said. "We'll come back stronger and better than ever."

FloraFEST returns to the Chihuahua Desert Garden

Kaye Mullins, education curator at the Centennial Museum, is in charge of coordinating the plant sale and recruiting people to volunteer and make this event a successful one.“We have a huge variety of plants that are native to the area and those that have been adapted like shrubs, trees and everyone’s favorites, the flowers,” Mullins said. From desert marigolds to sages, FloraFEST offers about 3,000 different plant species. Most of the plants at the event are not available at local nurseries or retailers.“One of our most popular variety of flowers is the chocolate daisy, and, believe it or not, it really smells like cocoa,” Mullins said.Living in a desert region, it is hard to find plants and flowers that bloom in the dry area and instead of purchasing the typical cactus, FloraFEST gives El Paso the opportunity to learn about the different plant varieties that are well adapted to the region.According to Mullins, the event draws close to 2,500 people coming through during the two-day plant sale. “It’s wonderful to see when they open the gates for people to come in and all you can see is the whole place covered in pink, purple, red and so many different colors,” Mull...

Men's Basketball Season Begins Friday at Home

UMass Lowell for the first time since the River Hawks elevated to NCAA Division I with a Fri., Nov. 11 contest in the Mullins Center at 4 p.m. It marks the season-opener for both teams. The Minutemen are 4-2 all-time against UMass Lowell, though the most recent contest between the teams was back in the 1990-91 campaign. Massachusetts won, 80-57 in the Curry Hicks Cage. The River Hawks finished last season 11-18 overall, their third year as an NCAA Division I program. However, the squad returns the core of its team with nine returning letterwinners, including four starters. The returning veterans include Jahad Thomas (14.5 points, 7.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists per game), Isaac White (11.5, 2.8, 2.4) and Matt Harris (10.1, 2.3, 1.3).

Lavender fest flowers into 13th year in Ojai

Ojai Valley while raising money for scholarships, according to festival President Cindy Mullins. "Our main mission is to educate people about lavender uses. We're not just giving ourselves a party. We're raising money for scholarships that go to young people in the valley. Last year, we gave away three scholarships and this year we gave away one. We give the $1,000 scholarships to interested high school graduates who study for an agricultural career, which we hope they will bring back to the valley," Mullins said. This year's festival will feature more than 100 vendors selling lavender items — oils, soaps, sachets, bouquets and more — along with other art, crafts and clothing. There will be live music all day, a petting zoo and games along with food and guest lecturers. "Our speakers are new this year. We have Chef Robin Goldstein cooking with lavender. Kim Hamilton will be here with her petting zoo. We have a person from the beekeeping club, to explain that bees are really important not only in agriculture and worldwide," Mullins said. "We also have a lavender farm tour of Frog Creek Farm." Christel and Larry Rogero will expand the hours of their small lavender and vegetable farm in Upper Ojai during the festival so people can walk through the rows of purple flowering bushes and pick their own fragrant bouquets. Frog Creek Farm has more ... (Ventura County Star)
