Get ready for Spring…and beyond! “Yard to Table” is an idea-generating showcase for gardening, landscaping the urban farming

Whether you’re seeking inspiration for outdoor entertaining, a colorful window planter, or a full-fledge beehive operation in your backyard, the popular “Yard to Table” showcase is a must-see this year. You’ll find plenty of ideas for your hobby gardening and urban farming pursuits.

Looking forward to Spring? Northwest gardening guru Ciscoe Morris shares need-to-know tips for getting your garden off to a great start in his “Hurry Up Spring: Ciscoe’s Tips for Your Garden.” Join him Sunday at 2 p.m. at Stage One as this gardening legend blends his celebrated expertise with lively humor.

At “Yard to table” you’ll find exhibits spotlighting vertical gardening for small spaces, greenhouse growing, and soil-less hydroponic gardening products. Malone’s Landscape will showcase lush planter boxes; in a nearby display, they present a stunning paver patio surrounded by attractive plantings, a bartop and BBQ, and a paver walkway leading to a welcoming firepit. Adding to the fun: a whimsical shed from Barntiques Custom!

And take a “little bit of Spring home” from the Flower & Bulb Sale. Urban farmers – and those who are simply curious – can check out a variety of bee farming accessories (including a live beehive) and honey products. 

“Yard to Table,” a Small Community Farm Showcasing the Latest in Urban Farming and Homesteading

From backyard beekeeping to apartment gardening, Northwesterners can see all the latest in urban farming and homesteading at “Yard to Table,” a 6,000 square foot educational community garden, at the Seattle Home & Garden Show.  A collaborative effort of more than two dozen of the region’s independent leaders in the Yard to Table movement (who are building this small farm on site to address the region’s burgeoning pandemic-related interest in gardening), “Yard to Table” features raised vegetable and flower beds, live small farm animals (including sheep, goats and baby chicks), a chicken coop and a greenhouse, as well as rotating presentations ranging from goat yoga to growing your own produce at home.
