The 16th Annual Winter Speaker Series
Every year, when the days are at their shortest, the weather looks the bleakest, and die-hard gardeners are out shoveling compost in the mud, wondering if the sun will EVER shine again, the Snohomish County Master Gardener Foundation hosts the annual Sustainable Gardening Winter Speaker Series.
The lecture series features eight celebrity gardeners, authors and subject matter experts sharing their knowledge on a variety of gardening subjects. Whatever the topic, they are always entertaining and educational. Plus they are SUCH a wonderful break from the winter doldrums!
The lectures are generally held every two weeks (exact scheduling depends on the speakers' availability) from the first Friday in January through early April in Lynnwood, WA. They run from 9:30 - 11:30am. Coffee and snacks are available at 9am and at the break.
Admission is by season pass sold between August and January. The price for a season subscription is $85. Single tickets may only be purchased at the door for $20 the morning of the lecture, based on available seating. (Season passes can be purchased on-line through Dec. 30th. After that date, they can be purchased at the door.)
In addition to the information shared by the speakers, gardeners can "talk shop" with other like-minded individuals. Many of the speakers will have their books available for purchase which they may sign after the session. In some cases, the speaker will bring favorite plants for sale.
