The first Flower Mart, held in 1939, was
a handful of booths with
jaunty green
and white striped awnings lining the
Pilgrim steps. It is
said that Mrs. Woodrow
Wilson was in one of those booths
selling fruits
and vegetables. Since then,
eight "First Ladies" have opened or
attended Flower Mart. I
Admission is free and guests will enjoy
music, dance, rides and games, vendors
and flower booths selling a wide variety
of herbs, annuals
and Proceeds benefit
the gardens and grounds of Washington
National Cathedral.
