Reminder: Broadview Plant Sale This Saturday
Don’t forget the annual Broadview Plant Sale this Saturday, May 7th, 10 – 3pm, in front of the Broadview-Thompson Elementary School at 132nd and Greenwood. It’s a fun event, and features a nice selection of flower and bedding plants, vegetable garden starts and herbs. It also has some wonderful plants for your home landscape- groundcovers, perennials, shrubs and sometimes trees- which are collected or divided from our members own gardens, varieties that can be hard to find elsewhere. The prices were GREAT and volunteers can help you select plants best for your garden!
Last year I came back smiling with a box full of goodies, including heirloom tomatoes, specialty peppers and lettuces and some unusual ‘collector’ perennials. Plan to come early for best selection, and tell your friends and neighbors! Prices for remaining plants are often reduced between the hours of 2 – 3.
This weekend is also Seattle Tilth’s Edible Plant Sale. Take advantage of the largest selection of organically, sustainably and locally grown vegetable plants in the Puget Sound region. The Edible Plant Sale is on Sat. & Sun., May 7 and 8, 9 a.m.-3 p.m at Meridian Park. (Adjacent to the Good Shepherd Center in Wallingford, 4649 Sunnyside Ave. N, Seattle 98103).
Enjoy life’s simple pleasures – grow food!
