Sand Lake/Nelson Twp. library looking for plant donations

Gardeners and readers will be delighted as the Friends of the Library “grows” minds this June and welcomes your plants for the 7th Annual “Awesome” Plant Sale & Auction at the KDL Sand Lake/Nelson Township Library. Donated plants are very important to this event.
This is a great time to divide plants from your own garden or just make some room. Re-home them and help the library!  Please pot your plants and label them with the common name, light requirements, height and bloom color. (Pots are available at the library.) Potted plants may be dropped off at the Library June 1-9. Plants will be inspected by the USDA and due to state inspection requirements, will not be accepted after June 9.
Local businesses, community residents and friends generously provide all the plants and items for the event. Last year, over 2,000 plants were donated, including perennials, annuals, herbs, flowers, trees, shrubs and more. The sale is from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and an oral auction will begin at 2:00 p.m.  The event is at the Library, 88 Eighth Street, Sand Lake (rain or shine) and all proceeds benefit the Library to meet the “growing” needs for youth and adult programs, books, and resources.
