Berkshire Botanical Garden will celebrate the arrival of fall with our annual Harvest Festival on Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 10–11, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day.
From rescuing deep-frozen cabbages to capitalising on massive end-of-season plant sales, Ron's got something for every truly obsessed gardener. Learn why fertilising bare winter soil is as useless as putting hair cream on a bald head, how to cheat the system by planting tough seeds now for an early spring head-start, and how to shield your precious evergreens from brutal winter winds.
Harvest Festival 2026 is history, and we are so grateful for the help and support BBG received from so many in our region to make this event happen. It truly takes a village to bring this celebration of Fall to life on our grounds every year.
