FRESH Extra
2014 Annual Seedling Sale
All this sunshine has us thinking of getting into the garden. In case you missed our note last week, FRESH's annual Seedling Sale is Saturday (5/24)! Our organic, local seedlings make growing your own vegetables, herbs or flowers easier. Your purchases support our community-based organic agriculture and youth development programs.

We're just a few days out from FRESH's fifth-annual seedling sale!
The annual sale runs 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. this Saturday, May 24, at the FRESH Community Garden Center (corner of Mercer and Williams streets).
We'll be selling organically-grown seedlings, started by FRESH youth crew members at our farm. It's a great way to get your garden going for the summer, whether you're planting in your kitchen window or in a backyard garden. In addition to our most popular plants, tomatoes and cilantro, we'll have a good selection of herbs, veggies and flowers. Prices average $2 to $3 for a six-pack of seedlings. We accept cash, check and EBT/SNAP.
Proceeds from the seedling sale go right back into the community, through our sustainable agriculture programs that train youth to be stewards of the environment and activists for a fairer, healthier food system.
