SUMMARY:Summer Solstice
DESCRIPTION:The summer solstice in 2023 will take place on Wednesday 21 June at precisely 9:58am CT. Contrary to popular belief\, the solstice is an exact moment and not the entire day. The event takes place on the first day of the astronomical summer season and marks the exact point the northern hemisphere is pointing directly towards the Sun. It also marks the longest day of the year\, with the highest number of daylight hours seen in a single day in 2023. Expect at least 16 hours of daylight in the US. \nWhat is the summer solstice?\nThe summer solstice takes place at the exact moment the Sun reaches its highest point in the sky\, which is when the northern hemisphere is tilted most towards the Sun. Essentially\, it marks the point when the Sun’s rays hit this part of the Earth most directly. \nThe Earth’s axis has a tilt of around 23.4 degrees\, relative to its orbit around the Sun. On 21 June\, the northern hemisphere is tilted at its closest point towards the sun and the southern hemisphere is tilted its furthest away from the Sun\, which is why the northern and southern hemispheres have opposite seasons to one another. \nThis means that the southern hemisphere will be celebrating its winter solstice at the same time as our summer event and vice versa. \nBecause it is related to tilt and not orbit distance\, the Earth is actually closest to the Sun (the perihelion) in January and furthest from it (the aphelion) in July. \nThe summer solstice is not necessarily the hottest day of the year. Usually\, the hottest day of the year is in July or August. This is because oceans and land masses release the heat absorbed from the longer days back into the atmosphere.

SUMMARY:Austin Bonsai Society Monthly Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Bonsai is a living art form\, with each plant constantly changing under the hand of the artist. It is a painting never quite finished. Bonsai also change with the seasons\, with each plant having its own unique attractiveness during each season. Miniature maples\, tiny elms\, delicate pines\, and junipers reflect both the seasons and the climates where they grow. Under our eyes\, and in miniature form\, we are privileged to watch the budding and leafing out of spring\, followed by the flowers and fruit of summer\, and the stark\, yet beautiful\, effect of bare branches against the winter sky. \nBonsai is an exciting adventure that cannot be adequately described to those who have not experienced it personally. Miniature trees and landscapes\, carefully nurtured in the seemingly too small containers\, return to us much more than they exact in the cost of creating and maintaining these plants\, which soon become our “children.” Bonsai is an adventure in which you can participate with us. \nYou can find the Austin Bonsai Society on Facebook\, Instagram\, and YouTube.

SUMMARY:Austin Ikebana Group Monthly Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The Austin Ikebana Group was founded by Isamu Taniguchi (circa 1902-1992)\, who started building the Taniguchi Japanese Garden when he was 70 years old. Ikebana is more than simply arranging flowers-its Japanese characters mean “giving life to flowers.” This art form has spiritual and philosophical roots\, where the relationship between every flower\, stem\, branch\, leaf\, and even container expresses a balanced and harmonious nature. The feelings of the arranger play a key role as well. Members rotate leading demonstrations and workshops. Because members have trained in various schools of Ikebana\, including Ohara\, Sogetsu\, Ikenobo\, and Ichiyo\, they bring a rich atmosphere of learning and growth to the meetings. This becomes a contemplative practice of expressing gentleness and elegance through the art of flower arrangement. Meetings are monthly on the first Friday at 10am.

SUMMARY:Resilient Beauty In The Garden
DESCRIPTION:As seasonal transitions and climatic extremes continue to challenge Central Texas gardens\, it becomes more important than ever for gardeners to explore the question: “How do plants thrive in the wild without our help?” Matt Welch\, a horticulturist\, farmer\, and plant ecologist\, spends entirely too much time pondering this very question. Join us for the monthly Garden Club of Austin meeting as he shares his best answers\, exploring the hidden ways the incredible plants and plant communities of the Hill Country survive the seasons\, and how you can take cues from these tough Texas plants to build wild beauty and resilience in your own garden. \nMatt Welch has spent the last 35 years enamored\, mystified\, perplexed and often confounded by the plant kingdom. He has worked in orchards\, nurseries\, botanical gardens\, academia\, and now lives and works on the Pedernales River\, canoes to work every day\, and is learning how to farm vegetables and grow cut flowers. An East Texan by birth and by disposition\, Matt left Nacogdoches for Austin in 2005 after working several years at the SFA Mast Arboretum and the Pineywoods Native Plant Center\, two gardens affiliated with Stephen F. Austin State University\, where he received his BS in Horticulture a hundred years ago. While there\, he happened upon the only thing he’ll be remembered by\, a pink fruited form of American Beautyberry\, known in the trade as Callicarpa americana ‘Welch’s Pink.’ \nThis will take place in the auditorium. \nOpen to the public\, free to attend.

SUMMARY:Austin Bonsai Society Monthly Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Bonsai is a living art form\, with each plant constantly changing under the hand of the artist. It is a painting never quite finished. Bonsai also change with the seasons\, with each plant having its own unique attractiveness during each season. Miniature maples\, tiny elms\, delicate pines\, and junipers reflect both the seasons and the climates where they grow. Under our eyes\, and in miniature form\, we are privileged to watch the budding and leafing out of spring\, followed by the flowers and fruit of summer\, and the stark\, yet beautiful\, effect of bare branches against the winter sky. \nBonsai is an exciting adventure that cannot be adequately described to those who have not experienced it personally. Miniature trees and landscapes\, carefully nurtured in the seemingly too small containers\, return to us much more than they exact in the cost of creating and maintaining these plants\, which soon become our “children.” Bonsai is an adventure in which you can participate with us. \nYou can find the Austin Bonsai Society on Facebook\, Instagram\, and YouTube. \n

SUMMARY:Austin Ikebana Group Monthly Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The Austin Ikebana Group was founded by Isamu Taniguchi (circa 1902-1992)\, who started building the Taniguchi Japanese Garden when he was 70 years old. Ikebana is more than simply arranging flowers-its Japanese characters mean “giving life to flowers.” This art form has spiritual and philosophical roots\, where the relationship between every flower\, stem\, branch\, leaf\, and even container expresses a balanced and harmonious nature. The feelings of the arranger play a key role as well. Members rotate leading demonstrations and workshops. Because members have trained in various schools of Ikebana\, including Ohara\, Sogetsu\, Ikenobo\, and Ichiyo\, they bring a rich atmosphere of learning and growth to the meetings. This becomes a contemplative practice of expressing gentleness and elegance through the art of flower arrangement. Meetings are monthly on the first Friday at 10am.

SUMMARY:Class: Organic Guide To Spring Insects
DESCRIPTION:Join entomologist Wizzie Brown from TAMU for a class that will cover common spring insects found in the vegetable garden. We will discuss identification\, biology\, and organic control strategies for these insects. Doors open at 6:00 pm\, talk starts at 7! Don’t forget to bring seeds and plants to swap afterward. If you can’t make it in person we will also stream the event via YouTube and zoom. \nAbout the Presenter\nMs. Brown serves as Program Specialist – IPM in the Austin metroplex encompassing Travis County and surrounding counties. Austin is the 4th largest city in Texas and the 13th largest in the nation. From 2000-2006 it was the 3rd fastest-growing U.S. city. The climate is subtropical with hot\, humid summers and mild winters. The community is racially mixed\, with white and Hispanic as the predominant races. The most important industries are government\, computer systems and information technology\, colleges and universities\, and business headquarters. The music industry and blue-collar industries are also important occupations. The range of political positions among Austinites spans from the very liberal to the very conservative. IPM concepts\, however\, bridge the political\, ethnic\, and cultural gaps. They offer common sense solutions to pest problems that provide economic\, environmental\, human health\, and quality of life benefits to people\, irrespective of their employment\, ethnicity\, or political persuasion
