This week’s main event is a rolling water conservation demo that’s part of the city’s Slow the Flow<\/a> initiative.\u00a0It’s going to focus on drought-resistant landscaping and gardening, zone planting and drip irrigation, so you can get a top-notch yard that’s also low-maintenance and low-cost. (Pictured above is Russian Sage, one of many beautiful and practical drought-tolerant perennials.)<\/p>\n

That activity runs for the duration of the market and should be informative as well as fun. If you’ve been harboring any questions about\u00a0hardy veggies and flowers, optimal watering times or how to plant for our climate, now’s your chance to ask them.<\/p>\n

Our musician this week is Mike Ross, a guitarist who’s performed at the Spokane Club, First Friday events, Coeur d’Alene Resort and wineries all over town. He plays bluesy rock as well as some Spanish-inflected solos. Here’s a video<\/a> of him performing “Lady Madonna” at Pig Out in the Park in 2011. He starts at 4pm and will play until the market closes at 7pm.<\/p>\n

Here are the vendors who are scheduled to join us today:<\/p>\n
