The lower level of the Town Center will be transformed into a plant and garden art market.  Local nurseries will be selling flowers, shrubs,  and greenery that will thrive in our gardens.

Garden artists will have their art available for sale, too. Whimsical birdhouses, mosaic artwork, garden pottery, mason bees, and more, all designed to make your garden more beautiful while harmonizing with your natural garden environment, will be available for purchase.
