Summer Gardening Classes

Burnt Ridge Nursery is open for drop-ins and plant browsing during the summer and fall (From July-December). Many selections of fruit trees, shrubs and vines are available. Several varieties are in pulp pots to reduce transplant shock and to make summer transplanting a breeze. Staff will be on hand to answer questions and to help you make selections.

Summer Drop-in Nursery hours: M-F 9:00am to 4:00pm and Sat-Sun 9:00am to 3:00pm

Weekly Gardening Classes/Orchard Mini-Series

Come unwind a bit and join us for our weekly gardening classes. This summer we will be hosting interactive presentations about edible landscaping. Each session will run for an hour and a half, with time for questions, answers, and browsing the nursery.

To be able to have a lively discussion and time for individual questions we have decided to keep the groups small. The presentations are limited to 10 people per event. Tickets are $12.00 each. The Family Days are limited to 8 families. Tickets are $10.00 per family.

All events will be held outside with protection from the elements.

You may purchase a ticket below or contact our office to reserve a spot. 360-985-2873
