If you have spring fever and want to get out in the garden, the folks at Cornelius can help. This Saturday, it's the Edible Festival at Cornelius. Learn how much space you need and the recommended plants that will thrive in our Gulf coast climate. There are two Cornelius locations: 2233 South Voss Road and 1200 N. Dairy Ashford. The free clinic on planting your own edible garden starts at 10:15am Saturday.

If you join the My Cold Stone email club at Cold Stone Creamery, you'll get alerted to great offers and coupons all year long! Just for joining now, you will get two creations for the price of one. You'll need to print a coupon and the offer is good for small, regular and large and you can choose up to 4 mix-ins.
