SATURDAY APRIL 30 10AM TO 2PM: SEED, SEEDLING AND PLANT SALE
DID YOU KNOW the humble Garden Gnome, originating in Germany, has a long history of bringing luck to gardens and good fortune to our homes? Then why do so many live neglected, weather worn, stripped of paint in our yards? Have we no gratitude for these jolly little statues?
I'm hoping we can collect enough garden gnomes so some students can repaint them to resell at the Seed, Seedling and Plant Sale. Kids have a creative way with colours, and I have a feeling these gnomes will be more than "garden variety." They will be a lively and whimsical addition to all our gardens. And they stand for a good cause: our school.
Every gnome needs a home. Don't let your garden go gnomeless.
If you have any unwanted kitschy creatures dwelling in your yard please let me gnow... I mean, know. Perhaps there is a creative project in the works!
Also, we are still in need of donations and volunteers to help make this sale a giant success!
- containers
- plants, indoors and out
- garden books and garden magazines
- garden paraphenalia and contraptions of all sorts
- entertaiment
Remember, your school garden counts now more than ever!
