Plants that have been started with a masterful touch will be on sale from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday during the Lincoln County Master Gardener Association’s 23rd annual plant sale at the Oregon National Guard Armory in Newport.
There will be more than 25 varieties of tomatoes, vegetable starts, herbs, native plants, perennials and houseplants. All were grown by Master Gardeners from seeds, cuttings or bare root starts to be suited for the unique coastal climate and environment.
Shoppers can also stop by the help desk for answers to gardening questions or for information on the Master Gardener program. Representatives from Bee Atlas and OSU Beekeepers Association will also be available to help people learn more about the 740 different bees that live in Oregon.
Once again, there will be the Garden Garage Sale section with a variety of yard art, garden tools, pots and other garden-related items at “everything must go” prices. Back by popular demand, Stone Sharpening will be available to freshen the edges of garden tools, scissors, clippers or loppers. Pricing starts at $5.
Proceeds from the sale support educational activities and scholarship programs.
