How the Garden Festival went: from soil testing to a successful garden

This year we could not miss one of the biggest horticultural events in the country, the Garden Festivalwhich was held for the second time. Between 15 and 17 May, in Pilisvörösvár, we plunged into the world of gardening, where hobby gardeners and professionals together could discover how to make their beloved gardens even more beautiful and healthy.

How we helped amateur gardeners at the Garden Festival

💚 Danuba Garden is had a stand at the Garden Festival, where we welcomed participants with a knowledge test quiz, useful discussions and the promise of soil testing. Those who completed the quiz correctly were also able to test their skills in a game of Blackjack Toss, which was a big hit with visitors. The event was a great success, with hundreds of hobby gardeners visiting our stand over the three days.

Our horticultural advisors, Vera Dávid and Ágnes Fodor, were on hand to answer the exciting questions that were thrown at them. Hobby gardeners were given personalised advice on how to get the most out of their gardens.

It is clear that more and more people want a more comprehensive picture of the state of their garden and are open to complex, combined solutions. We believe this is the case, and the Garden Festival provided a great opportunity to help hobby gardeners develop a more informed garden through valuable professional discussions.

Free soil test at the Garden Festival

One of the most exciting parts of the weekend was undoubtedly the soil testing and the detailed discussion and evaluation of the results. Garden Festival participants came with samples from their own gardens, which were tested on site using a soil scanner. Our events a soil test worth HUF 5,000 is provided free of charge to help you identify potential pitfalls in your garden. 

In addition to the in-depth discussions at our stand, hobby gardeners were able to listen to several presentations on the topic, thus increasing their professional knowledge. There was also the opportunity to our chemical-free products to view.

And to make learning fun, we added a knowledge quiz to the Garden Festival atmosphere. Those who answered all three questions correctly also had the chance to throw a teddy bear at a target.

Together for greener gardens

We travel the country all year round to attend events and visit garden centres. As a result, many of you came to our stand at the Garden Festival as acquaintances, which was a particularly good feeling for us. What's more, there were participants who came from all the way across the country to take advantage of the free soil test!

We believe in green solutions and their combined use, as they are the basis for a healthy, sustainable garden ecosystem. The Garden Festival was therefore important not only for hobby gardeners, but also for us. It was a particular pleasure to see more and more people thinking along the same lines, and we had the opportunity to have valuable professional discussions and personal meetings with our partners.

Thank you to all the enthusiastic participants for visiting our stand and joining us at the Garden Festival! And for those who couldn't make it: see you next year!
