Aloha! You are cordially invited to share your garden products and information with Kaua'i residents and visitors at the 18th Annual Garden Fair. The Garden Fair is a popular annual "one-stop-shop" event for gardeners and garden lovers attracting several thousand consumers each year.

The expanded fair includes not only the wide variety of plants, flowers, garden supplies and information that the fair has long been known for, but also a special farmers market in conjunction with the weekly Kauai Community Market featuring fresh and value added products, as well as freshly prepared food choices for breakfast and lunch. The UH CTAHR Garden Talks area will include lectures on a variety of topics throughout the day, and the 4-H kids will be there for family fun activities.
