Join us for a summer evening filled with great food, drinks and good company at Echter's Nursery & Garden Center in Arvada, CO.

This member-exclusive BBQ is a chance to connect with peers, explore one of Colorado’s most iconic family-owned garden centers and see what’s thriving in the Denver metro area.

Since 1959, Echter’s has been growing much of its own plant material on site, filling its greenhouses with standout varieties you won’t find just anywhere.

We’ll mix a little education with fun, with a mini-workshop beginning at 3:30 p.m., followed by BBQ at 4:30 p.m.. More information on the mini-workshop coming soon.

Date: Wednesday, September 16, 2026

BBQ Time: 4:30 p.m.
