“All Aboard” is the theme for a standard flower show planned by the Earth, Wind and Flowers Garden Club on September 24, and 25. The club is using the Toledo and Ohio Central train depot to stage classes of fresh flower arrangements and horticulture grown by its members and the Peas-in-a-Pod junior gardeners. The station is at 700 E. Rensselaer Street, Bucyrus.
The event is designed to celebrate the club’s 30th anniversary and encourage visitors to come and see renovations to the historic depot. Preparations have included workshops to help members plan exhibits which interpret the following titles; ‘Midnight Train to Georgia’, ‘Fast Movin’ Night Train’, ‘Chattanooga Choo Choo’, ‘Little Red Caboose’ , ‘I’ve Been Working on the Railroad’ and more.
Special exhibits are coming from Norton‘s Flowers and Etter‘s House of Flowers.
The show will be judged by an accredited flower show judge of the Ohio Association of Garden Clubs.
Once the judging is complete, the public is invited to walk through exhibits. On Saturday, September 24, the public is welcome from 2 until 6 p.m. On Sunday, September 25, the show will reopen from 12:30 to 3:30 pm.
There will be sales tables with potted perennials, dried plant materials, bulbs, containers, books, and miscellaneous items. The station’s gift shop will also be open during show hours.
