The Castlegar Garden Club’s Annual Plant Sale will be held on Saturday, May 7 from 9 a.m. to noon.
The Castlegar Station Museum, located at 400 13th Ave., is the perfect spot to plan a morning sojourn for a change of pace.
Unearth untold treasures from the personal collections of Castlegar Garden Club members. This annual harbinger of spring is your chance to share unique, exciting, and sometimes challenging plants — all affordably priced.
For a mirror to a wider world of horticultural treasurers, start your 2011 garden with scintillating new specimens to savour over the summer.
Since the early days of the 1990s when Bob Switzer founded the Castlegar Garden Club, the Plant Sale has been an annual event. Word has spread throughout the regional gardening community and beyond — as far away as Hope and Creston.
The Plant Sale is the CGC’s major fundraiser for the year.
This year the Castlegar Garden Club is encouraging a spirit of camaraderie. Members with an excess of plants team up with members who have time and energy, but a shortage of plants. The collection offered on May 7 will be enticing. Encouraging gardening is what the Castlegar Garden Club is all about.
