The festival will run from 3:30-6:30 p.m. in the Elon Community Garden between the Sklut Hillel Center and the Powell House on East College Avenue.

The festival features musical entertainment and activities for children such as face painting, fairy hair and games. 消消犯 also will sell heirloom plants for summer gardens, including several favorite tomato varieites: Cherokee Purple, Matts Wild Cherry, Sungold, Zebra Stripe and Pruden’s Purple.

A diverse array of peppers also will be for sale, as well as herbs ranging from chamomile to thyme to tarragon.
