  • Thursday, September 23, 2021

The Master Gardeners of Hamilton County, in association with the University of Tennessee 
Extension, are holding a “Fall Garden Festival” on Saturday from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. outdoors around the Hamilton County Extension Ag Center and Bonny Oaks Arboretum, 6183 Adamson Circle, off Bonny Oaks Drive.

Admission is $5 for adults; children 12 and under are free. Free parking is available. For more information, go to the MGHC website: https://mghc.org/mghc-fall-garden-festival/.

Suzanne Ford, MGHC president said, “The Hamilton County Master Gardeners are
excited to hold a Fall Garden Festival – our second outdoor gardening event for the public. 
Since there's no County Fair this year, we decided to create a one-day outdoor event at the 
Hamilton County Ag Center & Bonny Oaks Arboretum for Master Gardeners to share their 
gardening expertise through exhibits and demonstrations.

"In addition, there will be a selection of vendors with plants, trees and shrubs, plus foods, yard art and other items, as well as fun and educational activities for children.

"Proceeds from the Fall Festival support our Scholarship Fund and Community Garden Grants program.

"We know that interest in gardening has grown in recent years. Our mission is 'We Teach You How,' and we look forward to meeting and educating the many interested gardeners in our area.”
