Spring 2023 Happenings around the Nursery

 

Greetings all, and welcome to Spring in Florida.  It is already warming up fast and we know everyone is eager to get out in their gardens, spruce up their patios and add plant elements inside their homes too .

We wanted to keep everyone updated on our schedule, so here goes !

Our "home base" is Saturday Morning Market, downtown St. Pete  every Saturday from 9am-2pm.  We are in our 21st season as a full time vendor here. You can find us along the back East row of market, midway in the row, right next to the Honey People.  We set up a very large booth area with multiple tents, umbrellas and tables in order to display our gorgeous stock of Exotic Tropicals, Succulents and Cacti and we always have the popular Fiddle Leaf Ficus, along with specimens for the ground and containers, such as Desert Rose, Passion Vines, Perennial Vines, Hibiscus and more.

The regular season of market at the Al Lang Field parking lot run through the end of May, 2023, and immediately starting in June, we all move to the lovely Tree-shaded Williams Park just a few block away. The summer market is every Saturday from 9am-1pm.

Once in a while, we participate at St. Pete area special events, and this coming weekend, on Sunday, April 2nd, we will be set up at the popular 3 Daughters Brewing location, 222 22nd street south, just off the main drag of the Central Avenue district.  This event runs Noon till 5pm.  Us, along with a dozen other special plant and artisan vendors will be there for your shopping pleasure.

We are also available by private appointment, for you to visit us at our Home Nursery in north St. Pete. during the week.  Contact us by email or text to set up a convenient time.

We are also gearing up for our biggest show of the Spring Season, the Green Thumb Festival, that happens here in St. Pete at Walter Fuller Park, on the west side of town.  This is a popular huge event with over 120 vendors set up around the park, along with non-profits and city-supported Plant programs.  There is also a great area of Foods to Eat on site, as well as nice bathrooms.
