Garden Town Discoveries – Epcot

The next stop on our tour of the International Flower and Garden Festival 2009 is Garden Town. After exploring and photographing Cinderellabration Norwood and I moved on to number 2 on the Garden and Festival map, Garden Town. Over near the Universe of Energy, Garden Town is the place where you can hear tips and tricks for gardening, Reflections of Earth a photograph exhibit all about Earth (it is inspired by the Disneynature movie Earth which will start April 22, 2009). Also in Garden Town you can talk to folks from the University of Florida about the best ways to plant your own garden. In addition to the daily exhibits and information there will also be guest speakers who will give information on gardening, flowers and landscapes. Even if you are not a gardener there are speakers that will intertest everyone. For example, I am not a gardener but there is one speaker that really interests me that Norwood and I are planning on seeing. Susan Belsinger, food writer and photographer will be at Garden Town on April 3-5. Since my MA thesis was on dining culture in 18th century novels I am really interested in hearing about food writing and of course photographing.
There is so much more happening right now at Epcot that next week will we continue our celebration of Spring.

Garden Town is only open on Friday- Sunday 10am -5pm. More information about the speaker and the Garden Town schedule can be found at the Garden Town 2009 information page.
