Things to do in Florida March 2, 3, 4, 2012

Deciding on which things to do in Florida March 2, 3, 4, 2012 is going to be tough. Even close to home, or Florahome in our case, there's the Florida Azalea Festival over in Palatka which like the flower it's named for provides a fun and colorful way to welcome in the Spring. Be sure to include a trip to Ravine Gardens while in Palatka if you want the full Azalea Fest experience - it's really a beautiful place. Another clear signal that springtime in Florida is right on our doorstep is The 'Florida Strawberry Festival' in Plant City - one of the sweetest spots in the state. If music is a big on your list of things to do in Florida March 2, 3, 4, 2012, the Strawberry Festival offers up some of the biggest names in the industry with The Band Perry, Hank Williams Jr. Josh Turner and even Reba just a taste of what to expect at this year's event. For those lucky folks near Floral City, Florida this weekend, 'The Floral City Strawberry Festival' is also on the list set for March 3 - 4, so don't miss it! Another date fast approaching is St. Patrick's Day on March 17th, but with celebrations taking place at different times for different locations, a link to the Florida Irish Heritage Center will help you keep track of the many St. Patrick’s Day parades, festivals and events in Florida for 2012. This list of things to do in Florida March 2, 3, 4, 2012 is pretty long already - gotta cut corners somewhere. Now get busy and y'all have some fun!
