Spring Garden Fair at Sedgwick County Extension

Sharing is caring!

Sedgwick County Extension Master Gardeners have teamed up with area garden clubs to bring a new event to the community. The first-ever Spring Garden Fair will combine two popular events: the Tools & Treasures Sale and the Plant Sale. They’ll also have other activities that will make this fair one not to miss. 

The inaugeral Spring Garden Sale will be a three-day event held May 5-7, 2022 at the Sedgwick County Extension. Admission is FREE. Of course, you’ll want to bring cash or check to purchase your plants and garden tools though!

Here’s some of what they have planned for the days of the fair.
