The 19th
Annual
Gardenfest!
Since 2002, the Garden Club of Indian River County has hosted
Gardenfest! Nature’s Finest Marketplace at
Vero Beach’s Riverside Park the first weekend in February. This
event is one of the largest free and family-friendly garden
shows in Florida. It has become one of the major attractions for
the Treasure Coast with over 85 vendors participating and 20,000
garden enthusiasts attending.
Gardenfest! returns on February 1 & 2, 2020.
Attendees are encouraged to bring their wagons to shop for
garden gems, and enjoy the amazing vendors, lectures,
demonstrations, food, and raffle prizes.
Gardenfest! event leadership has again
sought out the highest quality vendors of plants, planters,
pottery, fountains, furniture, lighting, statuary and other
garden accessories. Suppliers are pleased to offer Florida
natives, unusual tropical's and unique plant specimens. Vendors
prepare their displays with great skill and care to give
gardeners the latest trends in plant materials and garden
design.
Plants for sale will include palms, ferns, orchids, bromeliads,
herbs, succulents, bamboo, fruit trees, bonsai, roses and
geraniums. Vendors are always happy to answer questions and give
guidance.
In addition, “Ask the Experts,” sessions will be conducted each
day with free lectures, demonstrations and Q & A sessions all
led by local specialists. The Food Court and a Youth Activity
tent are spaced in the center of the vendors to allow visitors
to take a break from shopping.
Wonderful raffle prizes will be gathered in a number of
collections. There is something for everyone including golf
packages, restaurants, theatre, entertainment, spa treatments,
jewelry, art work and of course gardening. Winners do not have
to be present to win.
Proceeds from Gardenfest! help
fund the club’s local student scholarships and community
outreach programs aimed at enhancing, preserving and beautifying
the landscape of Indian River County plus educating those
interested in related topics.
Gardenfest! as always, has
free admission and parking - rain or shine!
