Pinecrest, Florida – Banyan Bowl at Pinecrest Gardens
There was a meeting tonight to discuss ideas about potential improvements and uses of the Banyan Bowl at Pinecrest Gardens. Several arts groups, schools and residents have shown a significant interest in having the Village of Pinecrest upgrade and improve the Banyan Bowl so that it can be used for a variety of performances. The Village has hired consultants to do a feasibility study. What do you think? What types of performances would get you to attend?
Peacocks In Pinecrest
I went on a run the other day, and within a half mile of my house I saw two people riding horses, a large iguana munching on leaves on the side of the road, and a beautiful peacock. I didn’t have my camera during my run, but on my way into work I had to stop for a peacock crossing the road. Luckily, I had my camera this time!

Pinecrest Farmer’s Market Is Full of Color
The Pinecrest Farmer’s Market at Pinecrest Gardens has been open every Sunday since December and I finally got by this weekend. It is open every Sunday from 9-2 p.m. through April, and I plan on being a regular. In addition to the fresh fruit and vegetables that are grown locally, there are food vendors with everything from conch to tropical ice cream, herb and vegetable plants for the home gardener, spices, and green products to clean your home or make it more energy efficient. My favorite part was the burst of color all around me. I know where I will be shopping for my produce for the next several months.
