Learn, party, and swap! Join us at the City of Fort Collins’s Xeriscape Garden Party.

• Demonstrations of xeriscape gardening so you can learn about water wise landscaping from experts (and hey! Did you know Bokashi composting needs no additional water like traditional composting?)

• Celebrate the art of landscaping with family-friendly activities, live art, demos, music, prize drawing, coffee truck, and more.

• SWAP! Dig up, divide, and donate plants from your own garden. No plants to swap? No problem — you do not need to donate plants to take new one’s home.

Join us for the Handmade Market NOCO at Maxline Brewing, featuring local handmade artisans and grab a beer (or three) at Maxline Brewing. We’ll have our Oz’s Bokashi Bran and other garden goodies for you to enjoy.

• Hosted by Folks Farm & Fort Collins Community Action Network (FCCAN)

• Garden of Oz will be demoing Bokashi Buddy, bokashi composting, sprout kits, grow kits, and more.

• Free gardening 101 workshop with Folks Farm & Folks Farm veggie starts for sale

• Spanish interpretation provided

• Food trucks on site for a tasty bite

The event is FREE! Please bring a nonperishable food item to donate to the Fort Collins Food Bank.
