 WHAT'S HOT

2023 Tomato/Vegetable Sale
​and Spring Plant Sale

Spring is a great time to garden. Warmer weather, leaves on the trees, and the danger of a frost/freeze ends by mid-March in our area. This winter is a good time to prepare containers and beds for herbs, tomato/vegetables and spring plants.

​The Tomato/Vegetable Sale will be held Saturday, February 25, indoors at PACE: Plantatarium A Center for Exploration, 623 N. Fair Street, Gonzales, Texas, 8:30am to 1pm.
Gonzales Master Gardeners Vegetable Grow Team will have a large variety of tomatoes, all grown from seed, specifically selected to do well in this area.  If you are looking for vegetables, we will probably have what you want. Red, yellow,
orange, purple, large and small, we have them all. There will be numerous starter vegetable varieties including tomatoes, peppers, squash, eggplant and others adapted for this part of Texas.

The Gonzales Master Gardeners are people who love gardening and want to learn more about horticulture.  Master Gardeners enjoy sharing their plant knowledge with others and promoting the love of gardening. 

What really sets Master Gardeners apart from other home gardeners is their special training in horticulture.  In exchange for their training, persons who become Master Gardeners contribute time as volunteers, working through the Texas AgriLife Extension office to provide horticulture-related information to the community.
