You’ll find an amazing selection of tantalizing veggies to choose from, including summer crops like tomatoes, peppers, squash and corn, foodie favorites, heirloom varieties, culinary herbs, edible flowers, pollinator plants and fruit trees and shrubs. The plants are the best varieties to grow successfully in our Pacific Northwest climate.

Tickets are $35 each. Every attendee must purchase a ticket. Tilth Alliance members do not attend for free.

Timed Entry

We use a timed entry system to the Early Bird Sale to help manage the crowd flow and prevent longer lines from forming at entry and checkout.

• Purchase a ticket for either a 5 or 6 p.m. entry. Arrive at the designated time and a volunteer at the gate will find your name on our guest list and allow you to enter.
• The same number of tickets are being sold. We’ve evenly divided the event’s maximum capacity (450) between the two entry times.
• We don’t anticipate running out of plants! Since this is still an early bird sale, we don’t expect to have plants sold out by 6 p.m.

Getting There, Parking & Where to Enter

There will be no parking on either side of Corliss Ave N between the park and N 46th or on the west side of Sunnyside Ave N.

Parking Tips

• Carpool, take a bus (#44 or #62), or use other alternative transportation if you’re able. You can also take Link Light Rail to the U-District station and then walk or take bus #44 to Sunnyside Ave.
• Street parking will be available near Meridian Playground (4800 Meridian Ave N). Street parking will be limited. If you are driving to the sale, plan to spend time looking for parking.
• There are a few accessible parking spots in the Good Shepherd Center parking lot. There is a paved sidewalk part of the way to the sale.
