Spring Gourd
Show at Shawnee Prairie
The West Central Ohio Gourd Patch is excited to announce their
3rd annual Spring Gourd Show. It will be held on Saturday, May
19th from 10am to 4pm at the Darke County Shawnee Prairie
Preserve in Greenville, in conjunction with their Spring Native Plant
sale. The events are free and open to the public.
During the show, handcrafted gourds will be available to purchase from
local artisans, along with dried gourds and plants. Come meet the
talented artists who will gladly share their knowledge of their craft.
It will be a wonderful opportunity to see the many different
artistic techniques that can be implemented to a gourd. Some carve and
wood burn them, while others may cut, paint or dye them different
colors, or use a combination of techniques to create a unique
piece of art. With so many different sizes and shapes of gourds
available, the possibilities of ideas are only limited by your
imagination. While gourd plants will be available for
purchase, any questions you might have about planting, growing,
harvesting, drying, and cleaning a gourd will happily be answered. If
you are looking for a unique item for a special someone or just for
yourself, or curious to learn more about gourds, please come check us
out. You might be surprised at what you may find and learn!
