This year’s Garden & Landscape Expo features two full days of live and interactive educational sessions with experts and gardening professionals, a live online exhibitor mall, virtual garden tours captured at the peak of the summer and autumn seasons, opportunities to pose questions to UW-Madison Horticulture Division of Extension experts in open Q&A forums, special activities for kids and families, and more!
Exhibitor Mall Live Streams Available Starting Today
Exhibitors from across the country are participating in this year’s virtual Garden & Landscape Expo. They include landscapers, nurseries, arborists, environmental and horticultural organizations, artists and more! Allen Centennial Garden, pictured above, is the artful living laboratory and public botanical garden of the Horticulture Department at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The Garden serves as an outdoor classroom for University of Wisconsin-Madison students and the surrounding communities, providing meaningful learning opportunities for visitors of all ages. Representatives from Allen Centennial Garden will be streaming live video content for Garden & Landscape Expo, and will be available to answer questions about their work and programming. While you can browse exhibitor profiles and shop anytime, exhibitors will live stream video content – such as product demos, tutorials, store tours and more – from 11 a.m. – noon and 6 p.m. – 7 p.m. CST, Saturday-Sunday, Feb 20-21. Participants will be able to chat with exhibitors and move from one exhibitor’s stream to the next, much like booth-hopping at a physical exhibitor mall! Gear up for the gardening season with plants, seeds, gardening equipment and advice, and connect with landscape professionals.

[There was more to this release, but you get the gist. All content not in brackets (plus the photos of the peony with ant and the river) is from PBS Wisconsin. Content was edited slightly to change “tomorrow” to “today”, as this is being posted on Saturday.]
