Williamson County Gardners Ready for Nashville Lawn and Garden Show

The Nashville Lawn & Garden Show will return to The Fairgrounds Nashville on Thursday, March 2, through Sunday, March 5, 2017. The four-day, indoor show will celebrate Plant a Forest: Gardening for the Future with garden displays, lectures, vendors, floral designs, and some special features for children.

“With this year’s show, we will showcase the traditional gardens our visitors have come to love, in addition to new ideas in sustainability, gardening for those living in urban areas, and even ways in which our next generation can become involved in gardening, recycling, and preserving the landscape,” said Randall Lantz, co-manager of the Nashville Lawn & Garden Show. “We look forward to welcoming everyone to the 2017 Show.”

The centerpiece of the Nashville Lawn & Garden Show is the walk-through, interactive garden displays from some of Middle Tennessee’s top landscape and gardening companies. An extensive schedule of free lectures from guest experts and the Davidson County Master Gardeners are offered each day on a variety of topics ranging from beekeeping to edible gardens. For shoppers and green thumbs alike, the Marketplace is filled with more than 150 vendors with 250 exhibit booths offering of a variety of plants, seeds, home décor, gardening equipment, books, and free advice for your next gardening project. The region’s top floral designers showcase their talents in the floral design gallery.

The Show will again partner with the Tennessee Farm Winegrowers Alliance to present a one-day-only Wine Festival during its traditional four-day Show at The Fairgrounds Nashville on Saturday, March 4. Featuring wines from more than a dozen wineries, the Saturday Wine Festival will be noon until 6 p.m.

Now in its 28th year, the Nashville Lawn & Garden show is Tennessee’s largest and most popular annual gardening event. More than 18,000 people from around the mid-south region visit the Show each year. The family friendly Show is indoors and is fully handicapped accessible. On-site parking is available and shuttles are provided. The Fairgrounds Nashville is located at 500 Wedgewood Avenue, Nashville.
