April 12th 2008 -
The nursery will be open all day 8:00 - 4:00 and the festivities will begin at 4:00
The Live Bait Band - Their fifth appearance at our bamboo festivals. The four guys have added two more players. Great! Now I have to pay more...
Asian food (Asian fusion?). We've done Cuban (twice), Jamaican, & Mexican food. Asian is next. Two chefs with woks will be on-site, stirring up a variety of Asian fare. Plus, servers will pass Asian hors-devours so no need to eat our bamboo shoots in the garden! All managed by Personal Chefs Catering
Drinks - Beer, Ale, Water, Soft Drinks, Green Tea, (and maybe a bit of Absinthe)We always promote quality (usually over quantity!) when it comes to our brews. This time, we're pleased to have on tap:
 Fullers ESB, Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, Brooklyn Lager, & Monk in the Trunk Amber Ale.

Fullers ESB is a superior Brittish ale, Sierra Nevada Pale ale is a multiple award-winning U.S. ale, the Brooklyn Brewery also has won many awards at the Great American Beer Festival, Monk in the Trunk is our local (Jupiter, FL) favorite.
Entertainment - Live music for the adults, Pony rides & petting zoo for kids.
 The Monkey Lady will bring her non-human primates as always.
