Event Details

Let’s venture off to Pennsylvania to see the Philadelphia Flower Show! The PHS Philadelphia Flower Show is the nation's largest and longest-running horticultural event and features stunning displays by the world’s premier floral and landscape designers. The 2026 PHS Philadelphia Flower Show celebrates the stories that ground us in gardening, whether it’s the nostalgia of a grandparent’s garden, a beloved family recipe that begins with the bright scent of freshly picked herbs and vegetables, or the heritage traditions that shape how we plant, grow, and gather. Through immersive garden exhibits and stunning floral displays Rooted: Origins of American Gardening brings to life the personal stories, cultural traditions, and horticultural inspiration that connect us to plants, each other, and shape how we garden today. Lunch will be on your own so you can either head to the Grand Hall to visit the food court or head to the Reading Terminal Market located directly across the street from the Flower Show. The Market has been a staple of Philadelphia foods and culture since 1893! Just make sure you get your hand stamped for re-entry before you leave the show for lunch! We’ll be getting back on the bus at around 3:00 p.m. to head back to the library and everyone will be instructed on where to meet.

THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS!
