Garden Education Expo

For out  last Third Saturday in the Garden classes, May to September  2026 …

Discover a whole world of hands‑on learning at this fun, interactive garden event! Explore a variety of engaging learning stations and live demonstrations, enjoy kid‑friendly activities that make gardening exciting for all ages, and get your questions answered by Master Gardeners. It’s the perfect blend of inspiration, education, and garden‑powered fun. 

You’ll find something for every gardener—whether you’re curious about Simple Seed Saving, eager to learn Tool Care & Tool Sharpening, or ready to rethink your seasonal routines with Rethinking Fall Cleanup for a Healthier Garden. Dive into soil‑building at Turning Yard Waste into Garden Gold, discover the magic of decomposition at Worms at Work: Nature’s Recyclers, and explore new possibilities with Exploring Native Plants and Beyond.

If you’re planning ahead for fall, don’t miss Shut It Down Right: Year‑End Irrigation Must‑Dos, and if you’re looking to grow your gardening knowledge even further, stop by the Washington Gardener Certificate / Master Gardener Program station to learn how to deepen your skills through Green School.

Kids will love the Hands‑On Garden Fun for Kids area, packed with activities designed to spark curiosity and creativity. And of course, our Ask a Master Gardener Plant Clinic will be open throughout the event to help diagnose plant problems and answer your gardening questions.  And you definitely won’t want to miss picking up a few plant starts at the Refresh Your Garden by Lifting, Dividing, and Replanting station.
