THEME: The 2023 Vermont Flower Show Grand Garden Display theme will be Out of Hibernation!  Spring Comes to the 100-Acre Wood, an adaptation of the world and magic of Winnie the Pooh, by A. A. Milne. 
 
VERMONT FLOWER SHOW:
The Vermont Flower Show is quite unique among flower shows in the U.S. and we will be ready to usher in the Spring of 2023! VNLA members and associates build a 15,000 square foot themed landscaped display (equal to about an acre). A committee works on the design and we receive hundreds of donations of plants, time, materials and labor. A group of volunteers then comes together for 3.5 days to build this display. Along with the grand garden landscaped display, the show offers a wide variety of features and activities to choose from (see highlights below).




  • Grand Garden Display (over 15,000 s. ft.) filled with flowering bulbs, shrubs trees, and water features!


  • Local artists will be painting live in the Grand Garden Display.


  • Over 100 vendors related to the horticultural/gardening participate in the Flower Show Marketplace


  • Over 35 educational seminars and hands-on workshops on a variety of topics.


  • Experts on-hand all 3 days to answer your gardening and landscaping questions.


  • Family Room with craft and planting activities all 3 days as well as scheduled entertainment.


  • Local bookstore will offer a great selection of books to choose from.


  • The Federated Garden Clubs of VT display


  • Plant Sale at the conclusion of the show on Sunday.
