The weather was chilly on Saturday, but we still managed to raise about $250 for the Hicks Garden! Thank you to everyone who helped in some way, whether by helping out with the sale or supporting us with your purchases.
We still have some vegetable and herb plants left. We are going to try to sell these in the next week or so. If you or your friends/family/coworkers would like to purchase something, please let me know ASAP. A list of available plants is at the end of this post.
