Spring is nature’s way of saying, ‘Let’s Party!’.
Robin Williams
The Master Gardeners of Whatcom County are famous for their spring plant sales. You will find a wide selection of plants (some difficult to find elsewhere) at very good prices, and uniquely adapted to our Northwest environment. Your purchases support Washington State University Extension Whatcom County Master Gardener programs, including gardening education for all ages, plant clinics, maintenance of and improvements to our demonstration gardens, and donations to the Ferndale Food Bank.
So come on out and buy some plants! . . .
