Alameda’s Spring Shindig & Plant Sale

Come and find the ABG booth on April 20, 2024 from 12Noon - 3PM for our Annual Plant Sale!

Alameda Backyard Growers volunteers had so much fun offering our selection of organic tomato, veggie, flower and herb starts at ARPD’s Spring Shindig in 2023, we’re doing it again! Join us, rain or shine, along with a field full of vendors, bouncy houses and other activities at the Alameda Point Gym & Field, 1101 W. Redline Avenue on Saturday, April 20th, 2023.

As always, we grow tomato starts that we know from our own experience do well in Alameda. We’ll also offer cucumbers, zucchini, green beans, winter squash, peppers, basil and sage. Our selection of neonicotinoid-free flower starts will attract bees, butterflies and other pollinators to your garden; this year we’ll be offering starts of scabiosa (pincushion flower), tithonia, cosmos, marigolds, nasturtiums, sunflowers and more.

A coloring book table will keep kids busy (or give them a quiet moment after the bouncy houses!) while you peruse the plant starts and get caught up in typical gardening conversations.

Please bring a container to carry your treasures home.

Let's celebrate another winter of plentiful rain (and Sierra snowpack!) and gardening – for ourselves and our families, for the sake of Mother Earth, or just for the sheer pleasure of it all!
