Flowers Everywhere! A Garden Party Fundraiser

A community garden fundraiser featuring live music, local food, flower picking, tea tasting, and educational garden tours.

We are gathering for our annual Garden Party Fundraiser “Flowers Everywhere” on Sunday, August 30th from 4:30-7pm to celebrate renewal and flourishing in the Dr. John Wilson Community Garden. Our Garden Party will be held in our very own Dr. John Wilson Community Garden at 99 White Pine Dr, Black Mountain. The event will feature live music from Becki and the Farm to Jazz, a locally sourced dinner, fresh jam tasting, pick your own flowers and bouquet making with Cindi Quay, medicinal tea tasting, cyanotype sun printing, and tours of the native pollinator garden with Emily Sampson and a tour of our Growing For Donation Vegetable Garden featuring crops from Utopian Seed Project! Tickets $40 in advance $50 at the door $25 student and needs-based tickets available Tickets and more information at https://bmtcommunitygardens.org/flowers-everywhere-2026-garden-party-fundraiser/ Your ticket purchase goes directly to supporting integral garden systems like our Assistant Manager position, the internship program, community education programs, tools and supplies, and garden infrastructure needs, so that we can continue to build local food sovereignty by growing food to donate at no cost to those friends and neighbors who need it most, and along the way educating others about gardening and growing community. Whether you have been a community gardener here since the beginning, or you have never visited us prior and want to learn more, everyone is welcome!
