You celebrated Mother Earth last Monday, but Arbor Day is on Friday, and the City of St. Petersburg is having a party.

More than 120 vendors and exhibitors take over Jungle Terrace’s big ol’ park for the nearly 40-year-old Green Thumb Festival, which includes workshops for kids and adults, ask an arborist sessions, and the Garden Club of St. Petersburg annual, juried flower show.

The city says 30,000-35,000 people are expected to attend over two days, so carpool or get there without using gasoline if you can.

There’s no cover for the Green Thumb Festival on Saturday-Sunday, April 27-28 at Walter Fuller Park in St. Petersburg.
