This looks like a good time, at a great place, from Altadena Heritage (and we like the use of "amongst" and "whilst"):
Barnyard, abundant gardens, and orchards will glow golden (but hopefully, not hot) Sunday, July
26, at 6:30 p.m., for this year’s Golden Poppy Urban Homestead Fete on the grounds of Kazi Petelka and John Steinmetz’s home at 2027 Mar Vista Avenue.
Our hosts are musicians extraordinaires with the Los Angeles Opera, and Kazi is a passionate rare
fruit grower, gardener, poultry raiser, and culinary artist who uses her produce to set a fine fresh table, and also bottles, cans, cordializes, pickles, and otherwise preserves her bounty. Nothing goes to waste, not even the feathers from the poultry, used in millinery or costumes for the opera! Kazi will give entertaining tours of her remarkable creation — guaranteed inspiration for any gardener.
Amongst the chickens and turkeys and other live music, we shall celebrate being able to share this abundance with home-made baked goods, salads, and desserts whilst our 2009 Golden Poppy Awards are given to special gardeners who use water wisely as they add beauty to their neighborhoods. Be sure to reserve either at altadenaheritage@earthlink.net, or at 626/797-0054. Entry is $10 members, $20 non-members, or one free ticket included with new family memberships who join that evening.
