The 38th annual Whidbey Gardening Workshop is a full day of classes and hands-on demos, speakers and a vibrant Garden Marketplace.  Island County Master Gardeners from Whidbey and Camano are bringing together horticulture experts who will guide us towards creating more productive gardens today while ensuring a healthier environment for the future.

The Workshop offers four 1-hour sessions of instruction with over 40 classes to choose from. Plant Clinics, Make-n-Take classes and demos will also be offered.

Our keynote speaker will be Christina Pfeiffer, a well-known Pacific NW based educator and author who has enjoyed a long career working in public gardens, teaching horticulture and consulting.

Throughout the day attendees can shop the Garden Marketplace featuring local garden-related businesses and organizations and visit the Bookstore with gardening books including those by our instructor/authors.  And items in the Raffle will be displayed throughout the Marketplace.

The Whidbey Gardening Workshop is the major fundraising event of the Island County Master Gardener Foundation, which exists to support the Master Gardener program of Whidbey and Camano Islands. Funds raised make it possible for Master Gardeners to carry out our mission to provide the community with education in science-based gardening and environmental stewardship.
