The 17th annual May Garden Mart will be held from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, May 6, and from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, May 7, in South Park or Fountain Park, Franklin.

There will be more than 45 vendors of perennials, annuals, trees, bushes, gardening equipment, herbs and garden décor as well as raffles.  In addition there are food vendors and live entertainment each day.  A Children’s Tent on both days will have face painting as well as an opportunity for the children to create an item to take with them.

A special guest this year will be Doug Oster, the home and garden editor of the Tribune Review in Pittsburgh.  Oster will give a presentation at 1 p.m. Saturday at May Garden Mart rain or shine.  Oster can be seen on KDKA-TV “Pittsburgh Today Live” on most Thursday mornings and heard on KDKA radio on Sunday mornings.
