Annual plant sale set for April 27
The Port St. Joe Garden Club will hold its annual Plant/Bake/Yard Sale on Saturday, April 27 from 8 a.m. until 1 p.m. at the Garden Center at 216 Eighth Street in Port St. Joe.
Rain or shine, this much anticipated event will attract shoppers from as far away as Franklin and Bay counties.
Plant lovers are sure to find something to scratch that unceasing itch for additions to their collections. Succulents, shrubs, flowering annuals and perennials, vegetables, and even native plants will be available.
Bargain hunters have learned over the years that the indoor yard sale always has surprises for early bird shoppers. Casual buyers will find themselves loading the trunk with bargains they didn’t even know they needed!
And who can’t resist Miss Valerie’s exquisite sweets? Or Miss Sandy’s home baked focaccias? Most items freeze well for unexpected guests or late night forays into the kitchen.
This fundraiser allows the garden club to further its mission to encourage horticulture and conservation in Gulf County and to beautify the local area. It also supports the maintenance of installed Blue Star markers that honor those who have served in the US Armed Forces.
For more information about the garden club, please visit its Facebook page. The Garden Center is a charming venue for family reunions, showers, and receptions. Contact rental coordinator Lanann Tuttle at 404-932-0646 to reserve the site for your next special occasion.
