MSHS has long sold garden-themed T-shirts at the Minnesota State Fair, and they are always a big hit. This year, we have a new batch of fun T-shirts for all the gardeners in your life. Here are three pairs of options for special people in your gardening life. Of course, you can order any shirt singly or get the whole group!

If you order online between now and July 31, you’ll receive the shirt in the mail about Aug. 15, so in plenty of time to wear to the fair and beyond.

The Sodfather and Plant Mama

Here’s the perfect shirt for the guy who takes yard maintenance seriously, and we also have one for all those plant parents out there.

For the Punsters Among Us

Yes, you do want to Turnip the Beet don’t you?

For Bee lovers of all kinds

We love these honeybee shirts so much we got them in two color options. For the serious pollinator people in your life.

All of the shirts are $25 plus $5 shipping. A great gift and just the thing to wear to the fair. The pre-sale goes on only until July 31 — after that, you will have to wait until the fair. We’ll have these plus lots of other shirts, books, garden tools and information about gardening at our booth in the Dirt Wing of the Horticulture Building. The fair is also a great time to join the hort society or renew your membership.

See you at the fair!
