New Ferry Building Sunday
Garden Market Opening May 4th
On Sunday, May 4th, the Ferry
Plaza Farmers’ Market will open a Sunday Garden Market, offering
an assortment of plants and gardening supplies for the Bay Area
urban gardener. The Sunday Garden Market will feature 15-20 small,
local nurseries that practice sustainable horticulture, and will
sell everything for the gardening enthusiast–indoor plants,
annuals, perennials, roses, trees, shrubs, herbs, vegetable starts,
and succulents. Inaugural vendors at the new market include California
Carnivores (carnivorous plants) and Momiji Nursery (Japanese
maples).
The Sunday Garden Market will also
offer weekly gardening classes and demonstrations for gardeners of
all skill levels, and will highlight urban applications of organic
gardening methods in Bay Area climate zones. Shoppers will also find
a handful of fruit and vegetable farmers and a few artisan vendors.
