Special Guests
A big thank you to Tomoe Sato-san from the Consulate-General of Japan in New York for attending and giving his opening remarks at our festival!
Shumei America and Iroha Taiko Group also brightened our festival with their lively drumming and energy healing! Visit the Shumei America Facebook page for more info if you're interested in learning Japanese taiko drumming, or if have an interest in natural agriculture and spiritual healing.

Blossom Watch
Even if you can't make it out the day of the Cherry Blossom Festival, the trees remain available to visit on your own time, and with over 50 to choose from, it's easy to find a spot with no one else around!
The blossoms really came out of nowhere this year! With a photo update planned for last week, the trees were barely out of bud, then suddenly bloomed this weekend! Most of the trees are 75% open or nearing full bloom, so get out there this week in the lead up to the festival and check out our beautiful cherry blossoming trees!
