Fall Gardeners' Market

What a wonderful success the Fall Gardeners Market was on August 28, 2021! 228 people attended the event despite the steady rain interspersed with heavy rain. There was lots of plant browsing, plant buying, plant discussions... (well, you get the idea : ), in addition to much needed camaraderie and general cheerfulness. For a lot of attendees, this was their first experience at Meadowbrook, which was a lovely venue.

Thanks to Laura, the Volunteers, the Attendees, the Vendors and Meadowbrook for making this a very special day.

Hope to see you all in August, 2022!

Free and open to everyone. 

Fall is one of the best times of year to plant— the soil is still warm enough to allow root systems to establish and cooler temperatures reduce your need to water. Get a head start on your fall plant-buying—and enjoy one-stop shopping-- at HPS/MAG’s annual Fall Gardeners Market. The Market features 16 different vendors, including sellers of succulents, native plants, fancy weeds, trees and shrubs, and tons of unique specimens you won’t find elsewhere. 

In addition, we offer special  pricing on nitrile Gardening Gloves. Some years we have a Raffle of plant related items from the vendors and some individuals.

At our Membership Booth, nonmembers are invited to chat about HPS/MAG with longtime members, and visitors may join or renew their membership.

Savvy shoppers bring baskets or a wagon to carry their purchases, and volunteers are on hand to direct parking and load cars.  A plant park is available to corral your purchases while you continue to shop.
