Bring your gloves and potting tools as well as a snack to share.  This is a fun event and a great way to get to know your fellow club members.  Even if you don't have plants to donate your help with the potting is appreciated.

May 9  10:00am Work day - setting up for the plant sale at Riekie Govaars' home. There is a lot to do so if you are able please help.  We will set up the tables, tarps and a tent, then move plants to the tables.  If you are storing sawhorses, plywood, boards, signs or tarps please bring these with you or arrange to get these to the Govaars'. We will need help shuffling plants too.
