SpotlightsGracious GardenersJoin us at The Gardens for a free produce and garden item swap on the second and fourth Saturdays from 10:00am - noon. As gracious gardeners,you bring your surplus of fresh produce, newly divided perennials or other garden gear and either swap or donate with other gardeners. The swapping venue is on the north side of the Visitor's Center, outdoors. We ask that all swappers donate a small bag of produce in exchange for using The Gardens as a swapping venue. Please bring your bag of produce to the Visitor's Center and The Gardens will deliver the produce to the Larimer County Food Bank. This is a free event, hence the 'gracious' gardeners. The success of this event depends on your participation. Compost Bins For Sale
