Plant Sale

Join us for our annual plant sale on Saturday May 11th from 9am - 2pm. This sale is brought to you by the work of our Sustainable Urban Agriculture High School Interns! These fantastic high school students have been working for the last 20 weeks learning to propagate and care for a variety of plants including succulents, flowers, and fruit/vegetable plants. They have cultivated these plants and learned skills in marketing and retail sales, all of which culminate in this student-led plant sale. Come show support for their work and take home some locally propagated plants for you and your loved ones!
