Spring Fling! is our annual celebration of community, culture, and the growing season at Peace Gardens & Market.

For over a decade, neighbors and visitors from across Asheville have gathered here to welcome spring together—with plants, music, food, and creativity rooted in place. Each year, more than 1,500 people come through the gardens to connect, celebrate, and invest in something local and meaningful.

At the heart of Spring Fling is our plant sale, featuring healthy, locally grown vegetables, herbs, and flowers cultivated right here in our gardens using open-pollinated and heirloom varieties.

These aren’t just plants—they’re part of a larger ecosystem of care.

Every purchase directly supports:

* Youth stipends and workforce development

* Environmental education in the gardens

* Free produce and CSA deliveries for elders

* The ongoing care of our gardens and public art installations
