2014 Flotsam and Jetsam garden sale is fast approaching

Be sure to join your friends, neighbors and community at the Flotsam and Jetsam’s Garden Club’s 37th Annual Sale May 10.

HANSVILLE — Be sure to join your friends, neighbors and community at the Flotsam and Jetsam’s Garden Club’s 37th Annual Sale May 10.

The sale is 9 a.m. to 12 noon at the Greater Hansville Community Center. This year’s garden sale will include an assortment of vegetables, herbs, perennials, annuals, ground covers, shrubs and trees.

Plants have been grown by members and hardened off in the few weeks before the sale so that they will be ready to thrive in your garden.

Back this year, just in time for Mother’s Day, are a wide variety of flower arrangements in all sizes; robust houseplants, and a tantalizing display of delicious pies, cakes, pastries and cookies to help shower Mom with love.

This will be the third year for Our Great Tomato Plant Giveaway for kids, too.

There will be no Half-Price sale this year because prices are low. When you arrive, several friendly parking volunteers will be on hand to welcome you and guide you to a parking place.  It’s recommended to arrive before 9 a.m.

A raffle is planned, which will include gift certificates and items from local businesses and restaurants.

Proceeds from this sale are used to fund scholarships and grants in horticultural and environmental studies, as well as to educate our members on all-things-gardening through a series of speakers and field trips throughout the year.
