After our long winter, everyone is enjoying every precious burst of color along our paths.
"Colors are the smiles of nature." – Leigh Hunt (English Poet, 1784 –1859)

With the topical plants safely moved to their winter quarters and the beds rototilled and prepared, the gardeners spent this week planting neat rows of bulbs for the first burst of color next spring.
"Gardeners instinctively know that flowers and plants are a continuum and that the wheel of garden history will always be coming full circle." Francis Cabot Lowell
About Today in Boston: We keep hearing that people miss our cover photos that ran for years in the Back Bay Sun. That assignment was to provide a photo that showed what the week was like in the neighborhood. Often the photos illustrated favorite quotations. Today in Boston is an occasional offering to our BostonZest readers featuring photos along the same theme but taken wherever we happen to be.

Mark your calendars and invest some time next week by going to the Farm Share Fair. Choose your CSA for the upcoming season and find a favorite food truck in a different setting!
(Editor's Note: Today, we're turning the BostonZest keyboard over the Mindy Harris who will tell you all about this event. Take it away Mindy…)
Do you love local, fresh food? Maybe you’ve been thinking about joining a CSA? A Farm Share program? Y’know – where you get this box of great produce every week direct from the farm.
Well, come join us in Cambridge on March 14th, and meet the fantastic farmers from across this state that bring local produce to the Boston area. Compare and learn about all the various options: veggies, fruit, flowers, meat, eggs, dairy, and specialty products.
More than 30 vendors will be at the fair, including some wonderful sustainable food product companies and service providers. Spend your food dollars on locally grown, and sign up at the Farm Share Fair!
More than 20 farms! Dozens of great food vendors. Food Trucks. Kids Corner with Face Painting. Fun gifts for anyone who signs up for a Farm Share!

Walking along the Greenway,
Wind whipped grasses making musical sounds,
Found last year's flowers turning to lace,
While this year's buds sprouted to take their place.
