We’re trying something new for our plant sale fundraiser this year! We won’t be offering online plant orders, and instead will hold an in-person plant sale like we used to.

Come by on
— Fridays April 3rd and 10th from 3-6PM — Saturdays April 4th and 11th from 9AM-noon.

We’ll be offering our usual selection of veggies, refined slightly based on what grew well in our gardens over the years.

Stay tuned for reminders and more information as the plant sale gets closer.
