The Highland Lakes Master Gardener Association and the Texas AgriLife Extension Service are proud to announce that the Eleventh Annual Hill Country Lawn and Garden Show was held on March 28, 2009 from 9am to 3pm at the Burnet Community Center, 401 E. Jackson St. in Downtown Burnet.
The Highland Lakes Master Gardeners, a volunteer arm of Texas AgriLife Extension Service, are excited to present this free show as a public service to the residents and visitors of the Hill Country. This year’s show featured more than 25 exhibitors of garden related items. The Highland Lakes Master Naturalists were there with information on their program and the Native Plant Society offered an exciting array of native plants. There were exhibitors from the surrounding Hill Country area offering plants, herbs, trees, veggies, garden equipment as well as other garden related items of interest. A booth especially for children was included in this year’s show. We had over $1200 worth of items like gift cards, trees, wonderful gift items and a beautiful handmade quilt in our raffle. We want to thank our many generous merchants for their generous contributions. Thanks to Wildseed Farms, Pottery Ranch, Backbone Valley Nursery, Ace Hardware Kingsland, Atkins Pharmacy, Salon Cappelli, Natural Gardener, Dee's Garden Delights, Wal-mart, Crownover Feed, Moody's Kingsland, Hummingbird Hollow, Sam's Dam Ranch, Hoover Building Supply, Tractor Supply, Ace Hardware Marble Falls, and Home Depot.
There were demonstrations presented throughout the day. In addition to the exhibitors, the show featured exciting free seminars. Join us on Saturday, March 26, 2010 for a fun and educational day at the Twelveth Annual Hill Country Lawn & Garden Show.
