[Lekooks] Spring plant sale

[Gerald Flakas]

Spring is just about here and it's time to be thinking about spring plants.
We used to hold a plant sale open to the public in May in conjunction with our rummage sale. We are not planning on a rummage sale this year, but I am wondering if there is any interest in holding a plant sale. We used to make about $400 - $600 for the church without a lot of effort, and it had the added benefit of bringing people from the community at large to our church and meeting us. 
The plant sale would involve church members and friends donating plants from their own plantings, or purchased if so chosen to do, and conducting the sale outside between the circular drive and the apple trees. We typically had the sale on Friday and Saturday, with people bringing their plants the day before or on the morning of the sale. Plants that sold well were hostas, bleeding hearts, ferns, and other perennials. Jim Hansen even donated some of his Jerusalem artichokes (some even sold!)
We are thinking May 17 and 18, being the weekend after Mothers' Day.
Any interest in participating in this?
