Bachman’s invites plant enthusiasts, collectors, artists and anyone curious about houseplants to Plantycon 2026. The event is free and open to the public at all six retail locations, including Apple Valley, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Each store has its own lineup. The wider celebration includes plant sales, rare plant releases, horticulturist questions and answers, plant-care stations and creative activities. Consult the Apple Valley lineup before planning around a particular workshop, food vendor or performer. The optional botanical-tattoo VIP experience is offered only at the Lyndale, Maplewood and Eden Prairie locations.
