Annual Master Gardener Sale!

Forsyth MO. - Despite gust winds, the annual Master Gardener Plant Sale for Forsyth Missouri went off on schedule on Saturday, April the 27th.

I had a chance to walk around and interact with a few of the fine men and women who belong to the Master Gardeners of the Ozarks on a day where quite a few eager customers braved winds gusting to 40 mph just to get a chance at shopping for perennials, natives, Herbs, ground covers and much more! Present were speakers and other volunteers who helped with selections and who even offered advice on garden planning.

I was told that this is an annual event that is held about the same time all across the area. (Next year, I plan to get the word out a lot earlier than I had done in 2019).

Shopping for a plant you liked was a real breeze as each pot had a colored stick of plastic with prices that ranged from .50 to only $4.

For more information, interested parties can contact the MU Extension Center at 417-546-4431 or they can visit www.taneyco@missouri.edu!

Also worth mentioning is the Save A Lot store that has a very nice selection of flowing plants and

veggies currently on display in front of the store!At the store I scored a pair of Habanero starts for a couple of bucks. I like growing these guys on my condo balcony and then using the peppers in assorted hot sauces during the summer months.
