Trial Garden Work Team Sign Up

We need everyone’s help in maintaining the Trial Garden! We have received the maximum amount of entries for our garden this season. The North Central Trial Garden is 1 of only 7 ADS Trial Gardens currently and is the crown jewel of the Minnesota Dahlia Society. It is also a major attraction at the Arboretum in the fall when the dahlias are in bloom. Working in the Trial Garden is also a great way to learn about dahlia cultivation from the experts in the Society by getting hands on experience!
