A perennial Maple Leaf favorite, the annual plant sale at Olympic View Elementary School boasts new features this year.
In addition to selling six varieties of Japanese Maple Trees, the school says it will have:
Tons of new-to-the-sale edibles including blueberries, raspberries, and even some grapes! We’ll also provide the inspiration for container gardens, including spectacular shade and sun designs and edible herb and gardens already in pots. For the DIY crowd, we’ll provide the potting recipe so you can build your own.
The sale kicks off at 9 a.m. Friday at the school, 504 N.E. 95th St. The hours are Friday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., Saturday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. All proceeds benefit children at the school.
Kids will be especially eager to come on Saturday between 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. to make pinecone birdfeeders and to design sun catchers made from “found” materials.
