Celebrated as one of the largest gardening events in Western North Carolina, the fête draws plant and outdoor vendors and enthusiasts from throughout the state. More than 200 craft and plant vendors line Hendersonville’s downtown streets, creating a, “seven-block garden wonderland,” according to Terrye Jacobs, event coordinator for the city. Numerous nurseries will be selling non-flowering and flowering plants, even those not typically found when out plant shopping. There will be hand-made crafts of all kinds, including furniture, birdhouses, soaps, pottery, and much more. Additionally, there will be gardening experts on hand, providing valuable tips. » Main Street; Friday & Saturday, 9 a.m.-5 p.m.; free; (828) 693-9708, www.hendersonvillenc.gov
