The Marais Des Cygnes Extension Master Gardeners will hold their Annual Spring Plant Sale from 9:00 to 5:00 Thursday through Saturday this week. It will be in the parking lot of the new Extension Office. The timing of the sale is perfect for gardeners who are ready to get outside and begin working in their 2021 garden. Plants are all locally grown and safe for butterflies and bees. In addition to host and pollinator plants, shoppers will also find other native plants and perennials: colorful annuals for containers and bedding, tropicals and succulents, herb and vegetable transplants for unbeatable home grown taste, small trees and shrubs and gorgeous hanging baskets for instant beauty and Mother’s Day gifts.
The Master Gardeners design and maintain the display gardens at the Historic Miami County courthouse, as well as gardens at the new K-State Extension Office in Paola and a vegetable trial garden that also functions as a source of produce for under served communities. New projects are underway in Linn County. Proceeds from the Spring Plant Sale help support these projects.
