My bounty from the June Plant Swap
Looking for free plants? Have perennials in your garden that need to be divided? Want to meet other local gardening enthusiasts? If you answered Yes to any of these questions then you should plan to stop by the Fairfield County Plant Swap next Saturday, October 10th.
The Plant Swap is being held at the New Canaan Nature Center in New Canaan, CT from 8:30 – 10:30 am. Check-in starts at 8:30 but runs throughout the Plant Swap. The actual swapping starts at 9:30. The grounds of the Nature Center are open to all swappers. If you’ve never been to the Nature Center this is the perfect time to experience all the trails and exhibits the Nature Center offers.
At the June Plant Swap, we had over 25 people participating. We are hoping to have even more next weekend. A hallmark of the Fairfield County Plant Swap is the free raffle that all swappers can enter. In June, we raffled off a rainbarrel donated by R.U.F. Products of Ridgefield. This time we are raffling off the following items generously donated by Colorblends of Bridgeport, CT.
- 200 daffodil bulbs
- 100 tulip bulbs
- 100 daffodil bulbs
- 50 tulip bulbs
- 3 amaryllis bulbs
Remember, everyone who participates in the October 2009 Fairfield County Plant Swap has the opportunity to win one of these prizes that will provide beauty and color in your garden for years to come.
See you next Saturday!
