Join your fellow plant-a-holics as we return to Athens again for the fabulous sales at the UGA Trial Garden and the UGA Hort Club on April 5.  The sale starts at 8 am, which means you should be in line before then having studied the plant list. With a little coordination of our shopping, we can be certain that we leave with most of our hot ticket items.

 

Afterwards, some of us  might grab a casual lunch nearby. From there on, you might want to visit the State Botanical Garden or a nearby nursery. Some options include Farm 441, Cofers Home & Garden Showplace, and Sunrise Nursery (native plants). Or see if you can schedule a visit to Piccadilly Farm (open by appointment). We'll have a more thorough list of possibilities ready for those interested in going.

 

The plant list is now available here: Trial Garden Plant Sale List

To learn more about visiting the Trial Garden sale, read up:  "A Trial Run".

 

While you are in the Athens area, think about getting discounted advance tickets for the 31st Piedmont Gardeners Tour of Gardens - Gardens of Oconee County (mostly Watkinsville) on April 19, 10-4. "Tickets are limited" and appear to be dwindling fast. There may be a group outing for that too! More info on where to buy tickets and that are here: The Piedmont Gardeners

 

Interested in joining in or meeting up for the Trial Garden sale plus more?  Contact Liane. We'll update those who express interest with a link to the plant list when it is available, our more detailed plans, plus other local info as we get closer.
