A weekend with seminars, plants, new knowledge and joyful meetings.
Gardeners, growers and nature enthusiasts are being invited to celebrate the start of the planting season at the Autumn Mediterranean Garden Fair, which returns to Lagoa’s FATACIL Showground on October 17 and 18.

Organised by the Mediterranean Gardening Association Portugal (MGAP), the annual event promotes sustainable gardening and landscaping designed for Mediterranean climates, where conserving water and protecting biodiversity are becoming increasingly important.

Held in the Municipal Park at the FATACIL Showground, the fair will run from 10am to 5pm on both days, with entry costing €1.

This year’s edition will feature more than 70 exhibitors, including over 20 specialist plant growers, alongside a programme of free talks, demonstrations and practical advice centred on the theme “Creating landscapes that care!”
