    Master Gardeners have raised some exceptional plants for the public to buy and enjoy. Annuals, perennials, ground covers, vines, vegetables, herbs, wildflowers, shrubs, trees, tropicals and house plants will be available for you to purchase at very attractive prices. Lynchburg Extension Agent, Don Davis, and Master Gardeners will be available to answer questions about your purchases and other garden questions. Handcrafted garden art, children's activities, home baked products, fresh produce and Mother's Day gifts will also be available.

    All proceeds fund the volunteer efforts of our non-profit organization. HCMGA trains Master Gardeners, conducts programs to teach children in elementary schools and neighborhood centers through our Children's Horticulture Programs, and continues to educate our citizens through the Virginia Cooperative Extension Master Gardener program in Lynchburg, Amherst and Campbell counties.
