Garden House; Upper Parking Circle
Free, no admission necessary
Not only is October the time of year when maples show their best color, it is also the best time of year to plant them. The Friends of the Garden work hard every year to bring a variety of vendors to this specialty sale where customers can browse the many shapes and sizes available and find the perfect maple for their own yard. Vendors include Arbutus Garden Arts, East Fork Nursery, and River Rock Nursery. Proceeds from the sale benefit the Garden.
