As always it sure flies by. I know on my last post I've mentioned that I'd be going hiking, but there was a Veggiepalooza Vegetable Gardening Plant Event at Cal state Fullerton Arboretum! My friend mentioned it that it would be on the 22nd so "G", our friend and I went. What's the Veggiepalooza you say? It's a multicultural veggie plant sale with over 250 varieties of tomato plants and 190 varieties of pepper plants. Veggiepalooza had several vegetables, fruits, herbs, and companion plants from all over the place and world held at the Fullerton Arboretum.

There are amazing rock falls before you enter the actual Arboretum and what's neat about the place is that there's little signs that describes what species of plants are in the area. There are also info boards that will make you feel like you're at a National Park.
