11th Annual Herb Festival Spring Plant Sale & Tomatomania ©

Saturday, March 29 & Sunday, March 30

9:00 am - 4:00 pm

Speaker Schedule

Join us in celebration of the wonders of herbs at Quail Botanical Gardens’ 12th Annual Herb Festival and Spring Plant Sale. This year we are flying in Lucinda Hutson from Austin, Texas, to help us celebrate. Lucinda is the author of The Herb Garden Cookbook and Tequila! Cooking with the Spirit of Mexico. A nationally celebrated lecturer, renowned organic gardener and designer, radio and television personality, and culinary consultant, Lucinda will give a talk for us on both days at 2:30 pm.

Another special guest that will appeal to children especially is Janell Cannon, author-illustrator of the award-winning and beloved bestseller, Stellaluna. Janell will be here at 11 am on Saturday, reading Little Yau and Trupp, part of her Fuzzhead series. This is most appropriate since Little Yau is learning how to become an herbalist. Following the reading, we will have Fuzzhead and herb-related crafts for kids.

In addition to our special guests, we will have guided tours of the herb garden, on-going speakers on garden and herb-related topics, Herb Festival Market-place, the A-Z of Herbs information booths, and the QBG Spring Plant Sale.

Cost: Admission $10 for adults, $7 for seniors/military/students,
