ANNUAL PLANT SALE ~ TEAMWORK = SUCCESS!


2012 Annual Plant Sale

The skies were blue and the air was temperate on May 12.  With great care, our members emptied Sands Ring Homestead of the beautiful flowers that would soon grace many of the homes in the Cornwall area.  

From Members’ Plants, Bake Sale, Grandma’s Attic, Silent Auction, herbs, tomatoes, geraniums, orchids, perennials to annuals, the Cornwall Garden Club came together and had the most successful Annual Plant Sale ever.  

We raised enough funds to accomplish our many goals throughout the year.  In addition, the Plant Sale helped promote the love and lore of gardening in the community, which is a major objective of the Club.  Thus, “our love of gardening is a seed once sown that never dies.” (Gertrude Jekyll).
