Buds & Blooms

Picture
The Piney Hills Louisiana Master Gardeners will host their 12th annual Buds and Blooms on February 18, 2017 at the First United Methodist Church in Minden, LA.  Each year, seminars are provided for the public to help enhance their education in all things horticulture related.

This educational seminar began as a fundraiser to sponsor the 4-H Garden Contest and continues to be the sole source of monetary incentives and prizes for each contestant. Hence, the name... we are preparing young "buds" to grow and learn to be beautiful garden "blooms."

Cost of admittance is $10.  Festivities will kick off at 9 am and end at noon.  Visitors to this year's seminars will be presented with several timely topics.....see list below.
