About this event

 THE RARE & ROOTED FESTIVAL  Hosted by Twisted Roots Rare & Common Plants  Saturday, July 18th  10AM – 5PM  37 N Main St Suite 102, Bel Air, MD ⸻ We’re doing it BIG again… and honestly? It’s going to be better than ever. The Rare & Rooted Festival is back and taking over the Bel Air Armory  We’re talking:  45+ artisan vendors  A MASSIVE rare plant drop (insane)  DIY Terrarium Bar  Carnivorous Garden Bar (yes, build your own )  Food truck eats  Raffles & chances to win FREE plants  And… a whole lot of plant chaos in the best way ⸻ Last year, thousands of you showed up and made this one of the most unforgettable days we’ve ever had (and yes… y’all helped us win a Harford County tourism award ). The Armory, the parking lot + Armory side park will be shut down and FULL of vendors, plants, art, weird finds, and everything in between. Rain or shine, we’re inside AND outside. ⸻  DIY EXPERIENCES (aka your new obsession): Our Terrarium Bar will be fully stocked so you can build your own little world! Choose your vessel, soils, mosses, stones, and plants and create something completely your own. And for the chaos lovers… our Carnivorous Bog Garden Bar is BACK. Build your own mini bog garden using carnivorous plants like sundews, butterworts, nepenthes & sarracenia, set into lava rock + specialty substrate. It’s weird & it’s beautiful! ——— Bring your friends, bring your plant wish list, and maybe clear a little space in your car… because you will not leave empty handed.  Free to attend ⸻
