Getting Ready for the Sale

By Pat

The plants have begun arriving.

Wednesday is a whirlwind (sometimes literally, today!) with kids, teachers and adult volunteers working to bring in the plants from our growers. The student section leaders (pink shirts) have a special role in helping everyone else find the spot on the tables where the plants belong. On Friday, they will be in their sections to help answer shoppers' questions.

Sometimes a job can only be done by an adult... after the plants are taken out of this tower, we take apart the huge pallets and upcycle the wood.

Did we say there are a lot of plants that need to be put on the shelf?

But when each one gets into its spot, everyone's happy!
