Turtle Release this Saturday

The Forest Ecology Preserve is releasing turtles on Saturday:


Our turtle habitat is getting crowded!  As the weather has warmed up and turtles have been on the move we see more turtles on the roadway.  We've had several folks bring us turtles rescued from the busy streets of Auburn to come live a more peaceful life at the preserve.  Come out Saturday morning @ 9:00am as we release two of these turtles back into the forest at the Ecology Preserve.  Auburn Graduate and Preserve Volunteer Daisy Griffin will give a short presentation about box turtles followed by an optional hike.  During the presentation there will be live turtles to view and touch.  Meet at the Pavilion.  Free Admission.

Also, remember our turtle habitat and its permanent residents are accessible to view 7 days a week.  For pictures and more information check out

An Affordable CSA?

I have long been interested in joining a CSA group.  CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture and basically boils down to you pay a monthly fee and get fresh, local veggies, fruit, eggs, meat, whatever, each week.  I love this idea!  I looked into it in Auburn and found that Randle Farms had a CSA program.  I heard great and wonderful things about their produce.  I couldn't afford their prices.  So I am excited to hear about a new CSA coming to town.  The Grow Alabama program is now delivering to Auburn.  They seem to have reasonable prices and even let you customize your orders.  

Has anyone tried them out yet?  Check it out here.

Red Baron House Party

I tried out a site called HouseParty.com recently.  I signed up, picked the Red Baron Pizza party and applied to be a host (just fill out a quick survey) and was accepted.  It was so nice.  They provided a ready made party, from organizing the invitations and guest list, to sending a box with party favors & decorating goodies, to dropping off 3 Red Baron Pan Pizzas and 2 Red Baron Pastas at my house before the party time.  It ended up being tons of fun and the food was great.  I barely got a bite of the pasta because it was gone so fast.  

If you want a $1.00 off coupon for Red Baron check out www.RedBaron.com/PanParty

The Auburn Knights Orchestra is 19-piece jazz big band based out of Auburn, AL and is thought to be one of the oldest big band organizations in the world. Formed in 1930 at what was then known as Alabama Polytechnic Institute (API), now known as Auburn University, the band organized to play for dances and other musical events throughout the school year. During the summer months, band members took their show on tour, playing swing music at many clubs and beach resorts throughout the Southeast. Early band members had the opportunity to play alongside music legends such as Count Basie, Frank Sinatra, Glenn Miller, Woody Herman, Tommy Dorsey, and Buddy Rich. Now celebrating its 80th year, the current band includes members from Auburn, Alexander City, and Columbus, GA. For more information on the Auburn Knights Orchestra, visit

**EXPRESSIONS CAFE HAS BEEN MOVED TO FRIDAY, MAY 14th AT 7:00 p.m.**



Saturday, May 8th, 7:00 p.m. - Live Music with Jason Connelly

Jason Connelly makes a return concert appearance at the Gnu's Room. If
you missed his concert in February, you won't want to miss this chance
to hear his soulful sounds. If you have heard him before, there is no
doubt you will want to grab an opportunity to hear him again.

Connelly originally hails from Fort Meyers, Florida, but spent some
formative years in Smith's Station, Alabama before settling in the
Atlanta area. His vocal roots are from a gospel choir and they shine
through the delivery of his songs. Having spent 10 years traveling and
singing, Connelly is still learning and perfecting the craft of
songwriting, but he has a lot to share. He says, "In the beginning it
was all about melody and filling a floor. Now after years of open road
soul-searching, it's about life and all of its missed opportunities
and misguided emotions. If the floor fills this time, it's because I
said something worth hearing." There will be no cover for this event,
however, a suggested donation of $5.00 will go to the performer, and
he will also have CDs available for purchase. To sample Jason's music,
go to www.myspace.com/jasonconnelly
