Seattle Tilth's Edible Plant Sale offers the largest selection of organically and sustainably grown vegetable starts in Seattle.
We sold 60,000 plants and had the help of almost 300 volunteers. A huge thank you goes out to everyone who participated!
Now you can download Hot Tips: Veggie Gardening that we handed out at the plant sale.
Check out photos from the sale and the amazing list of volunteers who helped make it happen!
###
This event is ideal for beginning or longtime gardeners. Choose from over 50 varieties of tomatoes and 20 varieties of peppers, rare and heirloom veggie varieties, an extensive selection of culinary herbs, edible flowers, and drought tolerant perennials. These plants are hand-selected by the Seattle Tilth experts to perform well in our Pacific Northwest climate.
Not just a sale
Enjoy free presentations on gardening topics by Tilth staff, enjoy delicious food from Patty Pan Grill or MIghty O Donuts, help your kids plant seeds and do other family activities in the Kids Tent, and listen to some fiddle tunes, the Yellow Hat Band, and other music - all in the lower field this year.
Or, check out the compost demos by the Master Composters in the Demonstration Garden.
