Spring Fling - SATURDAY, APRIL 22, 2023 AT 11 AM – 3 PM
We invite all to come celebrate community and living on Earth. Manheim Gardens is throwing its annual Spring Fling event this year on Earth Day. Come plant a tree, swap some plants, enjoy beautiful music, show off your baking skills at our potluck, relax by the fire and enjoy. All ages welcome to this wholesome community celebration.
A community celebration of renewal - the start of the growing season, warmer weather, and longer days to enjoy activity outdoors and bask in our connection with each other and the natural world.

Other Events & Programming
We offer other events and programming throughout the year with activities that have included: yoga, scavenger hunts, mural painting, dying fabrics using plants from our garden, honey harvesting demonstrations, and more.
Below are examples of other offerings at Manheim Gardens:
Trevor Turla Quartet
Free Show - July 2022 - A spectacular outdoor concert featuring local trombonist Trevor Turla and his band, with a first-ever opening performance by local pianist Carrie May. Trust us, live music in a garden just hits different. Event made possible in part by a Charlotte Street Foundation Cultural Producer Grant. The grant funding fairly compensates the artists while connecting our neighborhood to cultural events at no cost to guests.
Mothing at Manheim
Free Show - July 2022 - Were you constantly catching bugs as a kid? Do you have an appreciation for things that fly, hover, or even swarm? Then Manheim has the party for you. This weekend is packed with activities!
After a night of wonderful jazz on Friday, come back to the garden Saturday at 7 PM for an evening of discovery, moth-based learning and libations. Hosted by local naturalists Cydney Ross and Alix McDaniel, join us for a unique opportunity to observe up-close the many colorful winged beings of Missouri's urban landscape, many of which only come out at night.
