The 37th Annual Berkshire Botanical Plant Sale will take place Friday and Saturday, May 9 and 10, at the Garden located at 5 West Stockbridge Road, West Stockbridge, Massachusetts. On Friday, there is a members-only early buying privilege time from 8 – 11, and then the sale will be open to the General Public from 11 – 5. The sale will continue Saturday for everyone from 8 – 5. Gardeners get a jump-start on the season with this annual plant sale, which has become an iconic harbinger of spring in the Berkshires. This year’s theme, Get Your Hands in the Dirt, features thousands of plants to choose from, appropriate to northeastern gardens, organized into the habitats in which they thrive. Vegetables and herbs from Monkshood Nursery will be available to buy, being sold by BBG staff and volunteers. NEW this year: Living fern and succulent wreaths and miniature wall gardens designed by Head Gardener, Christine Caccamo. Last year’s popular Container Design Station will be back again: Let us help you design your own unique container to take home. Silent Auction: Bid on specialty plants, wall gardens, as well as green services.
