Jacksonville Garden Club’s 30th-Annual Spring Sale will be held in downtown Jacksonville on Saturday, May 9th from 10:00am to 2:00pm in the alcove next to the Post Office on Oregon Street. The sale will feature beautiful fresh-cut flowers arranged in vases by Club members. Unusual plants, handmade papers, and cookies, brownies, breakfast pastries, and other treats baked by Club members will be available for purchase. These items make wonderful Mother’s Day gifts, or simply offer a day-brightener for anyone who loves flowers.

Money raised from Garden Club activities provides scholarships to local young people studying in related fields at the Oregon Stewardship and Rogue Community College, and also supports local beautification projects at the Peter Britt Gardens, Doc Griffin Park, and the Jacksonville Post Office.

Plan to visit the Spring Flower and Bake Sale on May 9th, and bring home some spring happiness! For more information about the Spring Sale or Jacksonville Garden Club events, please contact Club President Susan Cassaleggio at 541-899-2029. Photo: Jeanena Whitewilson
