It it true, the Merritt Spring Plant Sale is coming up!
Saturday May 7, 9-3 pm, and Sunday May 8, 12-3 pm.
Volunteers are putting on the fair, selling rare fruits, perennial and annual vegetables, grasses, California natives, and mediterranean plants. There will be food and music. Address is 12500 Campus Drive, Oakland.
This semester the volunteer cadre has been a bit off kilter as the horticulture department facility is getting its much needed renovation. The greenhouses have been closed but are now open again. The lathe house is still going strong, however, with no interruptions. And the nursery out at the permaculture area was not affected. Volunteers are always welcome Friday afternoons and are welcome other times if arranged with Mollie and Anders. Mollie can be reached at 510-436-2491.
