The Cumberland County Master Gardeners welcomes vendors and non-profit organizations to participate in the upcoming 2025 Flower, Lawn and Garden Festival which celebrates spring with all things related to plants.
The 2025 festival will be April 25-26, at the Cumberland County Complex in Crossville.
Speakers, live demonstrations, music, and a relaxed atmosphere are provided to inspire visitors for the next growing season.
The Flower, Lawn and Garden Festival will be an opportunity for craftspeople and community businesses to share their unique talents and products with a diverse and engaged audience.
The Cumberland County Master Gardeners are particularly interested in vendors selling plants, arts and crafts made from natural materials or inspired by nature, yard and gardening tools, and landscaping elements.
They also encourage non-profit organizations with an environmental message to participate, as well as food trucks selling drinks like coffee and healthy lunches.
Vendor applications are accepted at https://www.eventeny.com/events/outdoorfestival-12809 until March 15. Vendor spaces range from $75-$200.
Last year’s festival attracted about 1,500 people, and many vendors reported they were pleased with their sales and the connections they made.
This annual event is a fundraiser for the Cumberland County Master Gardeners, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides free educational programs in Cumberland County and summer internships for college students in the field of agriculture/horticulture.
