Come spend the day with us and participate in workshops, demonstrations, and of course plants will be available for sale! Learn how to create a native habitat for butterflies and birds, grow vegetables, herbs, and fruit trees, and how to grow orchids from trees. The Garden Shoppe will be stocked with new plants and several vendors will be on site. Masks are required.
