South Side in Bloom is back for its fifth year to show off nine community gardens and neighborhood parks.

Various activities will happen at the nine locations, including free sampling of freshly grilled veggies, music performances, artists doing live paintings, and touring these beautiful spaces. New this year are exercise activities (such as yoga or zumba) at Dorothy Bacon Memorial Park.For a full list of our locations and more details, go to www.southsideinbloom.com.
