The Iredell County Extension Master Gardeners are bringing one of the biggest names in North Carolina horticulture right here to Statesville.
Mark Weathington, Director of the world-renowned JC Raulston Arboretum, is joining us live for an exclusive, highly anticipated masterclass titled "Nearly Native: Wild and Cultivated Plants from Our Own Backyard"
Whether you are looking to revamp your landscape, find climate-resilient plants for Piedmont clay, or just want to spend a morning with fellow plant lovers, this is the event of the season.
Ticket Includes:
• A light breakfast spread
• Mark Weathington's exclusive lecture
• Access to local plant vendors
• A curated silent auction
• Tours of our demonstration gardens
Proceeds go directly to the 'Growing Hope Campaign' to help build the Yokefellow Community Garden, which will provide fresh, grown produce to families facing food insecurity right here in Iredell County.
