Our Fall Plant Sale is THIS WEEKEND, August 15th from 8am to 3pm!!!
For those of you who have never been to one of our plant sales before, here's how it works:
Plants are displayed on tables in the parking lot just east of Gaiser Conservatory.
Plants are arranged by botanical name within groups: Sun, Grasses, Shrubs, Vines, Edibles, Native, and Shade. Tropical plants (house plants) are arranged randomly.
After you have made your selections, volunteers will count them and give you a tally sheet. You will take that tally sheet to one of the cashiers who will total your bill and accept payment. We accept cash, checks, Master Card and Visa, debit or credit.
Just a reminder, there is NO sales tax, and TFM members get a 10% discount. Memberships are for sale at the cashier, or you can join online here: https://thefriendsofmanito.org/membership
An annual TFM membership is $35.
You can park in the lot just west of the park office or along the road by Ferris Perennial Garden, which is also 21st Ave. You may leave your shopping cart along the road next to Gaiser Conservatory, then drive your car around and load it.
You can find more details about the plant sale, including a list of plants you'll expect to see here: https://thefriendsofmanito.org/plant-sales
