The 14th annual Nelson Garden Festival ran on Saturday with huge crowds and sunny weather.

Buying plants, selling them, talking about them, celebrating them, and socializing with friends-- that's Nelson Garden Fest. This year's 14th annual festival on Saturday drew huge crowds.

More than 50 vendors and community groups were on hand with perennials, annuals, vegetable seeds, trees, furniture, and flowers.

"The event is always held on Mother's Day so we can always get something for Mom's garden as well as our own." says Glynn Violini, one of the founders of the event.
