Plants, Pots, and What-nots Sale Table
We will have an in-club Plant Sale Table with plants & garden related items every month with exception of December.
Simple guidelines:
- Pot-up desirable healthy plants from your garden.
- Label each pot—a simple label will do.
- Bring the plants (or tools) to Centennial Lodge early, before the start of the meeting. Deliver them to the person in charge of the sale table.
- We will price the plants.
- When you shop, be generous. Our prices are the suggested minimum.
