DORSET - When master gardener Charlie Nardozzi speaks, thousands of gardeners listen to him on Vermont Public Radio and many others enjoy his instructive books.

Vermont's favorite horticulturalist will be at Mettowee Mill Nursery on Saturday, Sept. 15, at 9:30 a.m. to talk about incorporating all different types of fall bulbs into a garden. This Discover Dorset event is a great opportunity to learn how to design a plan for fall bulbs and how to plant them properly for a satisfying spring plant landscape.

Over two dozen events are planned around the town during the two-day fall festival highlighting the wide variety of arts, crafts, and small businesses that contribute to the lively spirit of Dorset. Local artists will open their studios to visitors and there will be bountiful good food. The Dorset Inn will host a local cheese tasting event, take a factory tour at J.K. Adams, enjoy a sampling of local apples, honey and jams, and Someday Farm is doing tastings of recipes using their locally grown produce and bringing some of their farm animals.
