Plant Festival 2025

Join us for our third annual spring Plant Festival!

March 22 - two weeks before the big sale - 10am to noon

721 Foster Street, Durham

Extension Master Gardeners have teamed with local community partners to share research-based gardening practices and offer solutions to protect and enhance our environment and community.

This event is for all ages! Learn about native plants, composting, beekeeping, bird-friendly habitats, the Durham Library seed library, local community gardens, patio gardening, and more. Check out many of the plants that will be available at the sale, with Master Gardener plant experts available to answer your questions.

If you are one of the first 250 attendees at the Festival you’ll get to choose a free plant, or a voucher for a free plant at the sale 2 weeks later, starting in the second hour of the event. First come first choice! List of available plants will be updated closer to the festival date.
