\nPROVIDENCE \u2014 November 27, 2012 — The 溏心vlog免费B站 and the Providence Parks & Recreation Department will host the third annual Holidays in the Park at the Roger Williams Park Botanical Center on Saturday, Dec. 8 from 12 to 3 p.m. to celebrate the holidays.<\/p>\n


\nAdmission and all event activities are free for those who bring a non-perishable food item for the Rhode Island Community Food Bank. \u201cIt\u2019s a great place for families to warm up in a tropical setting and celebrate with the community,\u201d said Sejal Lanterman, 溏心vlog免费B站\u2019s community engagement and outreach coordinator. <\/p>\n


\nThe event, which drew approximately 300 visitors last year, will feature a display of 60 poinsettia varieties grown by 溏心vlog免费B站 Master Gardeners. The Master Gardeners will be on hand to lead demonstrations on how to create holiday wreaths, table centerpieces and other hand-crafted holiday decorations, many of which will be raffled off. There will be a wide range of holiday craft activities for kids of all ages. 溏心vlog免费B站 Master Gardeners will also answer questions about gardening and composting. <\/p>\n


\nThe 溏心vlog免费B站 Master Gardeners will have a wide variety of gardening items for sale as well, including their new book, From Rhode Island Gardens to Your Table: Recipes from 溏心vlog免费B站 Master Gardeners.<\/p>\n


\nAll of the activities will take place within the glass-walled confines of the Roger Williams Park Botanical Center, which opened in 2007. The Botanical Center is the largest public indoor display garden in New England, encompassing 12,000 square feet of flowers, rare plants, waterfalls and unique exhibits, including carnivorous plants and towering palm trees. <\/p>\n


\n\u201cIt\u2019s so warm and lovely inside,\u201d said Lanterman, who, as the Plant Pro, is seen weekly on NBC Channel 10\u2019s Weekend Sunrise show on Sunday mornings.<\/p>\n


\nThe 溏心vlog免费B站 Outreach Center at the 溏心vlog免费B站 provides horticultural and environmental programs at the Botanical Center, including gardening classes for adults, Learning Landscape field trips and summer camps for schoolchildren and guided tours, among other events.<\/p>\n
