This special event is planned in appreciation of the donors to, and friends of, the MSU Horticulture Gardens. We invite everyone who appreciates the beauty and wonder of gardens to join us.

Get inspired with new ideas and practical tips for your garden. Garden Day is from 8 a.m. to 3:45 p.m at the Wharton Center. At 10:00 am the group attends their first choice workshop held at the Plant & Soil Sciences building followed by Lunch, Market Place (vendors, plant sale, book signing) and their second choice workshop. At 2:30 the group returns to Wharton Center to hear the final keynote speaker. Cost is $75 for Friends of the Garden, Non Member $85 and all registrations $95 after July 25. Registration includes two workshops, keynote speakers, parking and lunch.
