HORTICULTURE COMMITTEE FALL PLAN SALE

  

The Washington County Extension Horticulture Committee is giving local residents the opportunity to purchase fall garden plants and support local scholarships at the same time.

For the sixth year, the committee will be offering a selection of cool season plants including broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, collard greens, kale, green leaf lettuce, red leaf lettuce, romaine lettuce, mustard greens, spinach, and swiss chard.

The plants are being offered at $2.50 for a pack of four.

All proceeds from the sale benefit the youth of Washington County through scholarships offered by the Committee.

Each year, the Horticulture Committee works to identify qualified graduating seniors pursuing a degree in agriculture, and awards a scholarship of $1,000 or more in May at the respective school assemblies.

Order forms are available at the Washington County Extension Office located at 1305 East Blue Bell Road in Brenham. You can also find them on their website at https://washington.agrilife.org/plantsale.

Orders are due by Tuesday, September 20.  All orders must be paid for when they are placed and no orders will be accepted without payment.

Plant pick-up will be on Tuesday, October 11, from 10am-5:30pm at the Washington County Expo Sales Facility in Brenham.

All plants must be picked up at that time.
