Local Herb & Garden Fair

Herb & Garden Fair In Harmony, PA - Vendor With Herbal Teas
LFLF stumbled upon a nice little local garden fair on Saturday.  The town of Harmony, PA was in festival mode when we passed by.  It was close to closing at the Harmony Museum Herb & Garden Fair and we came away with a couple of packs of marigold plants and some potted herbs.  This festival will be on the agenda for next year!  In addition to the vendors outside, the festival has a plant swap in the barn.  It works like this ... you show up with your potted plants and the folks put a dollar value and color code on them.  The sign even says that there is a drive-thru lane for drop off & pick up!  :)  You then have credit dollars to shop in the swap.  If you don't bring plants - no problem - you just pay the amount assigned to the plants at the check out table based on the color code.  The ladies manning the table told me to be there earlier next year ... double :).  Parking might be a little tight early on, but there is also a shuttle van running from "downtown" Harmony to the barn over the creek & outside of town.  There were about a dozen vendors outside, food in the barn, and Penn State Master Gardeners manning a question & answer booth.
