RIVER FALLS – Spring is here and it’s time to add this sale to your calendar. The River Falls Garden Club will hold its annual plant sale from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, May 13 at the St. Bridget’s School Gym in River Falls.  

The UW-River Falls horticulture department provides beautiful annuals and containers to complement what club members provide from their own greenhouses and gardens. Prices are affordable. Plants include shade and sun annuals/perennials, grasses, vegetables, herbs, bulbs, and containers suitable for Mother’s Day gifts. The Town and County 4-H Club volunteers to carry plants to shoppers’ vehicles and helps with the sale in other ways.

The plant sale is the only fundraiser for the River Falls Garden Club supporting the following:  Three scholarships for UWRF CAFES (College of Agriculture, Food Science, and Environmental Science) students, Hope 4 Creation sustainability efforts, the River Falls Community Food Pantry, Our Neighbor’s Place, ARC, library materials and more. 

Members of the club attend monthly meetings with inspiring speakers, tour gardens and greenhouses during July and August when there are no meetings, share garden tips with one another, and direct annual giving. If you are interested in becoming a member email riverfallsgardenclub@gmail.com . Buy local and support the club.
