About this event
Join us for the highly anticipated 2026 Tulip Bulb and Dig Sale, a beloved springtime tradition! This is your chance to take home a piece of our park’s vibrant floral display.
On Saturday, May 16th, we kick things off with the Tulip Dig at the Moses Fountain. Starting at 9:00 a.m., participants can harvest their own bulbs directly from designated beds. While the City provides some tools, we strongly encourage you to bring your own garden fork (please note that shovels are not permitted) to help preserve the integrity of the soil and bulbs.
The dig is a coordinated effort led by park staff and volunteers, so please ensure you only dig in marked areas. Bulbs are priced at $10 for a bag of 30, available only while supplies last. Make sure to arrive early, as the dig ends promptly at noon!
If you prefer to skip the manual labor, join us on Sunday, May 17th, for the Tulip Sale at the Lakehouse. Starting at 9:00 a.m., any remaining bulbs from the previous day will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis for $10 per bag.
Whether you are a seasoned gardener or a first-time planter, don't miss this opportunity to brighten your home landscape for the seasons to come.
