Admission is $5 for BNT members and $10 for non members.<\/p>\n
On Saturday, Nov. 21 and Sunday, Nov. 22 from 11 a.m. To 5 p.m.,\u00a0 the full scope of Christmas present takes over the \u201cRetreat Garden\u201d with more than 80 vendors of crafts and foods, premium drinks and cocktails in the Mistletoe Lounge, and for children, Jolly Land and Bluebird Children\u2019s Crafts Area.\u00a0 From tame boa constrictors to books,\u00a0 plants, arts and crafts, Scotch grotto, gifts galore, Jollification has it all.<\/p>\n
