During the weekend event there will be native plants, orchids, herbs, rare varieties of plants, youth activities and food vendors offering a wide variety of choices.  In another area local experts will present “Ask the Experts” sharing their knowledge and answering questions.

Note:  you don’t need to have a vegetable garden to grow tomatoes.  They grow well in containers on your porch or patio, providing the benefits of reduced weeds and fewer insect challenges.
