Susan Nagel, the admissions director for Friends School, spent most of the plant sale outside near the wristband booth, helping to greet shoppers and explain how we do things.
But she and her 7th grade son also put together the ramp we have to smooth the way out the exit door. The ramp is a nice metaphor for the role the sale plays in raising funds for the school's scholarship fund.
Another Friends School Plant Sale Ramps Down (on the Friends School blog)
Sunday is Discount Day! There'll be a good selection of plants left, so head on over to the sale.
The sale runs from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Wristbands will be available starting at 9:00 a.m.
The discount is one-third off. Keep track of your plants at full price. We’ll take the discount at the tally tables.
Sunday is a BYOB: Bring Your Own Box! We are really short on flats this year, so you might be happier if you bring your own. We’ll gladly reuse any you might have at home from this year — or before!
Friends School Plant Sale is a fund-raising event sponsored by the Friends School of Minnesota in Saint Paul. It's held each year on Mother's Day Weekend at the Minnesota State Fair Grandstand (map and directions).
