We hold our sale in one of the buildings at our fair grounds on a Wed. from 4 PM to 7:30 PM and Thurs. 8 AM to Noon. It takes a day and a half to collect all the donations and get them arranged and priced for the sale, which becomes a fun time of work and networking among our members.
At 4 PM when it is time to open the door, we are greeted with a long line of customers waiting impatiently to shop! This year our total sales were $12,800! Amazing isn't it? Lots of work but so satisfying. Proceeds are used to fund our various community projects which includes $2,000 in scholarships at our local college in their horticulture program!
