Free: Bloomin’ in Boynton has music, food trucks, and flowers

It’s never to early or too late to learn about the value of wildflowers and have fun doing it.

Did you know?

  • Many native wildflowers reproduce only by seed. Picking a flower reduces the ability of a population of wildflowers to sustain itself.
  • Picking the flowers of any endangered or threatened species is illegal in Florida

Learn more, plus gardening tips at this free, one-time community event. And yes, there will be music, food trucks, kids gardening activities, free plants, a plant sale and much more.

BLOOMIN’ IN BOYNTON: 6-9 p.m., Friday, March 24, 2023

The City of Boynton Beach is hosting in partnership with Greater Boynton Beach Sister Cities and the Florida Wildflower Foundation. Featured: Keynote speaker C.J .McCartney from the Florida Wildflower Foundation; and an award-winning free screening of “Kiss the Ground,” an informational presentation of the 2023 Sister Cities High School Art Competition.
