The Story Garden encourages taking a moment to stop and read a story. They also have "Peter Rabbit's Garden," where they are growing some herbs and vegetables for the local food bank - sweet! Definitely a place to check out, rain or shine! Good to see for all ages - and kids will love it! We don't have kids (yet) and we enjoyed it immensely!

Blossom has been moved to the Discovery Center/Story Garden/Binghamton Zoo. Still on Morgan but takes a little hunting - definitely worth it! Give yourself an extra hour or so to go through the garden too - you won't regret it!!

The bull that formerly resided on the canopy of the Vestal Steakhouse has been moved to the discovery center in Binghamton. They have painted flowers on the bull and named it "Blossom."
[christopher, 12/26/2004]The Bull is a landmark in Vestal N.Y. It is made of fiberglass and stands two stories high on the canopy of a landmark restaurant, The Vestal Steakhouse, which I use to own but have closed down recently. The bull is still there, and I have had several offers to buy it as far away as Texas.
