Sacramento Digs Gardening: Amador Flower Farm hosts annual Fall Fun Days

Ready for some fall fun, flower farm-style?

Enjoy a weekend of autumn celebration at Amador Flower Farm as the foothill wine country destination celebrates the season with its annual Fall Fun Days Festival.

From 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 28 and 29, the farm will host a family-friendly, garden-oriented salute to the season including mazes, a pumpkin patch and animals to pet.

Tour the farm's demonstration gardens for water-wise landscaping ideas. Plant experts will offer demonstrations and tips on fall planting, spring bulbs and the farm's specialty – daylilies. Amador Flower Farm grows hundreds of daylily varieties.

Take a free tram tour of the farm, spread out over rolling hills among heritage oaks. Admission and parking are free.

"After our long hot summer, the days begin to cool and the fall planting season heats up!" say the hosts. "Join us for our Fall Fun Days Festival. There will be fun for the entire family. Demonstrations by plant experts and fall bulb extravaganza.

"Visit the farm animals, take a free tram ride tour of the farm and venture through the hay bale maze, pumpkin patch and cornfield maze."

Bring a picnic to enjoy, too; there's plenty of space under the trees.
