Caught by the frost

12 years ago

This is a call for help. I got caught by the frost and my basil and tomato plants I was growing for the Childrens' Hospital sale were ruined (I should have known better). If anyone has any "extra" plants, please send me an email and I can arrange to pick them up. Thank you.

Thanks NHBabs!
Hi Poppa I am Michelle ...
NH babs hit the nail on the head. I am the nutty plant lady behind a sale that happens every Fri Sat sun in May to benfit CHB. Costco in Avon donates the space among other helpful things like restrooms and water and employees to help.
Even when we do not get "frost bit" we are always looking for people who want to help. Maybe you started more plants then you can use? We can put em to good use for the plant sale.
