We are keeping a very close eye on the weather forecast for tomorrow. ***As of now, we are still on for tomorrow's Jackson In Bloom.***
Volunteers, we will not be setting up our tent tonight, however, as the worst weather looks to be later this evening and overnight.
April showers bring an amazing Jackson In Bloom, and we'll see you in the morning! If we should postpone, we will post here immediately upon the decision. THANKS!
