Skagit Valley is home to three demonstration gardens operated by volunteers as a learning resource for the public. On the last Saturday of June, the gardens host an open house where visitors are welcomed to spend a day with the volunteers who maintain the gardens to learn more about the gardens and gardening. See plants chosen to perform well in the Pacific Northwest. Learn about effective garden practices, soil health, composting, pollinators, fruit tree pruning, native plants, weed identification, and more. Bring your family and friends.
The gardens are located on the grounds of Washington State University (WSU) Northwestern Washington Research and Extension Center (NWREC) at Mount Vernon, WA
This event is free and open to all and is hosted by the Skagit County Master Gardeners
