OCTOBER 2019 SEED AND PLANT EXCHANGEIt's almost here! One of our most popular meetings of the year, our members' only Seed and Plant Exchange. Join us Sunday, October 28th, 3pm, at North Haven Gardens. At this meeting members will bring seeds (quite often hard to find seeds), plants, divisions, or even garden items to share. Please label your plants and seeds with pertinent info like shade or sun, annual, perennial, veggie or herb. New to gardening and don't have anything to share? NO PROBLEM. Come join the fun anyway and take home some goodies that will help to get you started. Here are some images of past exchanges. Hope to see you there.
