SUMMARY:National Root Beer Float Day
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate National Root Beer Float Day on August 6th. In honor of National Root Beer Float Day\, The Willard will serve delicious root beer floats to benefit Duke Children’s Hospital\, our local member of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals\, throughout the month of August. \nRoot Beer Float Day holds special meaning to hotels that are part of the Marriott family like AC Hotel Raleigh Downtown as it harkens back to 1927\, when Marriott founders\, J. Willard and Alice S. Marriott\, opened a small A&W Root Beer stand to escape the Washington\, D.C. heat. Today\, we’re carrying on their legacy by offering root beer floats supporting Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals\, a cause close to Marriott’s heart since 1983. \nIndulge in a root beer float at The Willard on Thursday\, August 6th. A portion of the proceeds from every purchase will be donated to Children’s Miracle Network to help provide care to local kids. Let’s make a splash for a great cause!

SUMMARY:Responsible Gardening in a Changing Climate with Emmy-Award winning professor Bryce Lane
DESCRIPTION:For generations\, gardeners have relied on familiar rhythms and dependable rules of thumb. But as temperatures shift\, weather patterns become less predictable\, and pests and plant stresses change\, many gardeners are finding themselves unsure of what practices still work—and what needs to change. \nIn this 6-week course\, you’ll learn practical strategies for gardening responsibly and resiliently in the face of a changing climate. Together\, we’ll explore how climate change is affecting home landscapes and gardens\, from rising temperatures and shifting hardiness zones to changing rainfall patterns\, longer growing seasons\, and increasing pest pressures. \nAdvanced registration required.

SUMMARY:The Art and Science of Plant Care
DESCRIPTION:Caring for plants is both an art and a science—part intuition\, part know-how. Every gardener\, from beginner to expert\, faces the same essential questions: When should I prune? How much should I water? What’s the best way to plant\, fertilize\, or repot? In this class\, Bryce Lane brings decades of horticultural expertise to demystify these everyday tasks\, showing you not just what to do\, but why it works. \nOver eight weeks\, you’ll explore the fundamental practices that keep gardens thriving\, learning how to perform each one with confidence and purpose. You’ll uncover the science behind good technique—understanding how soil\, water\, nutrients\, and plant biology interact—while also developing the practical judgment that comes only with experience. \nEach session focuses on one key aspect of plant care\, building a complete toolkit for growing healthier\, more resilient plants in any garden setting.
