This weekend, Plants Alive in Silver Spring hosts a vibrant event with around 40 to 50 vendors, offering everything from plants to handcrafted goods. It's a great spot for those wanting to nurture their green thumb, discover rare plants, or simply enjoy a stroll in a beautiful greenhouse setting. On Sunday, another fantastic event takes place at Dock 5 in Washington, DC.
