Unfortunately, our annual Spring Plant Sale is cancelled. Please know that we have not reached this decision lightly. It is based on concern for the safety of everyone as well as a current inability to handle and care for all of the potted plants we would have on hand for the sale. Thank you for understanding. No one is as disappointed as we are. It is an event that we look forward to each year.
