New Haven's Wooster Square will be the site of the Cherry Blossom Festival on April 23. If you can't make it to Washington DC to see the cherry blossoms, you can enjoy the more than 70 that were planted in New Haven in 1973. For your entertainment there will be live jazz, salsa, steel band and big band music. The whole family will be entertained with activities and a great selection of food. There will even be pet friendly areas. Come and enjoy the festival from noon until 5pm.
If dogwoods are your passion, Fairfield is the place to be from May 12-14. The festivities include a 2 mile run as well as a mini dash for the little ones. It starts with a luncheon on Friday and includes a Saturday evening barbecue and dance. A walking tour, juried craft show, art show, plant and garden boutique and concerts round out the offerings. This year marks 80 years that the Dogwood Festival has been sponsored by the Greenfield Hill Congregational Church with the proceeds going to charitable causes.
