The Farms: Plant Sale Fundraiser
Get ready for gardening season at our annual Plant Sale Fundraiser on May 2-4 on the Gatehouse Lawn. (Friday, May 2, 5-8 p.m.; Saturday, May 3, 9 a.m.-5 p.m.; Sunday, May 4, 10 a.m.-4 p.m.)
Purchase your annuals, herbs, veggies, perennials, natives, arranged hanging baskets, Allerton Bluebells (limited supply!) and more. (Cash or check preferred; credit accepted.) Piatt County Master Gardeners will be available to answer gardening and plant questions.
100% of the profits made from the Plant Sale will go directly towards maintaining the Park and public programs. Get your quality plants to spruce up your home, garden, or as a gift while also supporting a local business!
Pre-order your plants using our Online Plant Sale (before April 26 at 5 p.m.) and they will be sorted and ready for you to pick-up during Plant Sale hours! Learn more here.
Kids can bring their own pot to our Kids’ Potting Corner during Plant Sale hours, purchase a plant, and use our potting soil to pot it up with volunteers to assist with proper planting techniques!
This is no ordinary Plant Sale – it’s part of our Bluebell Festival, which includes a Spring Market (Saturday), food, drinks, workshops, live music and more! Find details here.
No registration is required.
