"Herb Festival" - 2022 莱镇花草节

2022-09-03 02:09

早在远古时期，花花草草就是人类的好伙伴。它可以烹饪成美食，满足人的口腹之欲；也可以肆意美丽，给赏花人带来欢喜。

诗经曰：参差荇菜，左右流之。窈窕淑女，寤寐求之。

《楚辞》: 余既滋兰之九畹兮，又树蕙之百亩。畦留夷与揭车兮，杂杜衡与芳芷。

陶渊明诗：采菊东篱下悠然见南山。

辛弃疾词：黄花谩说年年好，也趁秋光老...人好花堪笑。

为了增进社区交流，九月十日，莱镇历史学会和莱镇园艺俱乐部将在Buckman Tavern & Hancock - Clarke House举办第二届莱镇香草节（Herb Festival）。现场将会有各种花草、香料以及相关衍生品的展览展示。莱镇华协(CAAL) 将在Buckman Tavern(Visitor Center 前面的草地) 设置富有特色的展台，包括木槿等各种传统花卉瓜菜展示与义卖，还有精湛的中国茶艺展示、动人心弦的现场中国民乐演奏。

赠人玫瑰，手有余香；何以解忧，莳花种菜！希望能够再次看到大家，也欢迎各位花花草草爱好者与大家一起分享你喜欢的花草。愿意分享植物或者种子的小伙伴们，请在九月十号中午将Pot好的植物带到展区。

Date: Saturday, September 10th

涉江采芙蓉，兰泽多芳草。采之欲遗谁？所思在远道。

- 这是相思

今日阶前红芍药，几花欲老几花新。

- 这是问禅

卖花担上。买得一枝春欲放。
泪染轻匀。犹带彤霞晓露痕。
怕郎猜道。奴面不如花面好。
云鬓斜簪。徒要教郎比并看。

- 这是买花人

桑下春蔬绿满畦，菘心青嫩芥苔肥。

这是种菜翁。

诚邀大家一起参加莱镇香草节，无论闻物相思或把花问禅，买花人或种菜翁，各得其乐。

Herb-based recipes will be available to take home and try! Lexington Historical Society will also share the history of 18th century western herbal medicine, herbal alternatives to tea during the American Revolution, and natural dyes and inks, as well as offering a decoupage craft to take home!
