PlantFest 2026

PlantFest, our annual plant sale and garden festival, will take place Saturday, Oct. 10, 2026, at Blackwood Farm Park, north of Chapel Hill. We’ll have a huge plant sale, gardening exhibits and demonstrations, kids’ activities, free seed packets, tool sharpening, food and more. We also will have exhibits featuring community partners and organizations. Visit www.PlantFestNC.org for more information.

Proceeds of the plant sale and art sale will support our activities in the community (we help people learn about plants and gardening).

We thank all of our Master Gardener volunteers who have worked hard all year to make PlantFest a success. We also appreciate our community partners, sponsors and donors (updated list soon). And we are especially grateful to all of our friends in the community who attend PlantFest!
