The Christian County Master Gardener Association is taking its annual expo on the road.
From 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, the public can take a self-guided tour to several locations in Christian, Todd and Trigg counties that grow and sell flowers, herbs, vegetables and decorative plants.
The event coincides with opening day for Hopkinsville’s Downtown Farmers Market in the Founders Square pavilion at Ninth and Main streets. Master gardeners will be set up at the market, the group announced in a Facebook post.
Locations participating in the self-guided tour include:
- The Bloomery, Hopkinsville
- Superlawn and Garden, Hopkinsville
- Christian County FFA Greenhouse, Hopkinsville
- The Country Barn, Fairview
- Free Range Flowers at Martin Farm, Gracey
- Homestead Greenhouse, Crofton
- Maple Shade Greenhouse, Oak Grove
- Woodcorner Greenhouse, Elkton
Here’s a map to all of locations.
Activities, tours and special offers are planned. Anyone who tours at least three sites and collects a ticket at each one will be entered into a drawing for door prizes.
