Upcoming Events and Area Happenings

Pahrump Valley Garden Club’s Annual Self-Guided Landscape tour is set for Saturday morning from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. Take a jaunt around town to get a first-hand look at this year’s featured properties, which include five local sites and the UNR Cooperative Extension. As you visit each inspiring landscape, you can observe the variety of plant life which grows well in our Mojave Desert environment.

Tickets are $7 per person and can be purchased at Pahrump Rentals/Do-It Best Hardware, the UNR Cooperative Extension, and the Pahrump Farmers’ Market (summer hours Saturday morning from 7:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. May through September).

Mom’s special day is Sunday. Spark your imagination and creativity while pondering a few of the following ideas. Consider helping her in her garden, tackling a home decor project, customizing a bingo game which revolves around her favorite things, flipping through a photo album, or exploring a museum. Make Mother’s Day this year as unique as she is.
