In Crown Point, the Lake County Master Gardeners have announced their 23rd Annual Plant Sale will be Saturday, May 11, 2024, 9am to 3 pm CT in the Fine Arts Building at the Lake County Fairgrounds. A wide variety of plants will be offered for sale to the public as a means of fundraising to support the scholarship and grant funds. Many of the plants are grown and offered by the Lake County Master Gardeners themselves.
Plants will include annuals, perennials, herbs, house plants, bulbs, shrubs, and some trees. All plants are labeled. “Master Gardeners will be available in abundance to answer any question. The Sale also includes mini-presentations on gardening topics and a “Trash to Treasures” area where “gently-used” gardening items of all kinds can be purchased. There will be Gardening Demos at 11:00 a.m. CDT,” the news release said.
The Plant Sale is one of three fundraisers the Lake County Master Gardeners hold each year. In their commitment to “Helping Others Grow” the proceeds of the Plant Sale help fund the Lake County Master Gardener Scholarship and Grant programs.
