Big Oak Nursery hosts Fall Festival

Fall is for planting – and fall gardening events!

Big Oak Nursery in Elk Grove will be packed with inspiration on Sunday, Oct. 13, as the destination nursery hosts its annual Fall Festival.

From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., vendors and local artisans will offer handmade crafts, goodies and more to help patrons get in the mood for fall fun. Admission and parking are free.

“Our wonderful friend Jen Payne-Pierson is helping us yet again to bring a variety of crafts, fresh produce, baked goods, jewelry and more for you to enjoy!” say the organizers. “Plus we will have pumpkins!”

And of course, a lot of wonderful plants; Big Oak specializes in edible plants (particularly fruit trees) plus water-wise perennials, shrubs, natives and much more.

The addition of local vendors makes Sunday a festival.

“All of these creations are offered directly by people in our community… which, to us, is the definition of harvest,” say the organizers. “Mark your calendar and make plans to join us.”

Big Oak Nursery is located at 10071 Grant Line Road, Elk Grove.
