3rd Annual Elwood Park Farm, Garden, and Craft Festival
The Suncoast has a multitude of agriculture, horticulture, and related businesses and vendors who do amazing work in our community. We wanted to highlight and celebrate these businesses through our festival! The Bradenton/Sarasota area is also known as the Culture Coast, which is why the arts is a part of this great event! The festival will feature plant, farm & homestead, craft & art vendors! We will also host gardening classes (see below!) with amazing, truly talented folks. We will have a Food Truck for when your stomach starts to growl! Come experience the wonderful community of Elwood Park and the incredible vendors!
