Buds & Blooms

​







​



​The Piney Hills Louisiana Master Gardeners will host their 15th annual Buds and Blooms on February 23, 2019 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."

 Please  mark your calendars and come join us for wonderful food, fun and door prizes on February 23, 2019!  

​Registration will begin at 8:30am.  Cost to attend is $15.00.  Festivities will kick off at 9 am and end at noon.
