WVC to host Spring Plant Sale

All gardeners and plant enthusiasts are invited to come out to White Violet Center for Eco-Justice, a ministry of the Sisters of Providence of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, Indiana, for the third annual Spring Plant Sale.

The sale is scheduled for 11 a.m.-5 p.m., on Friday, April 29, and 9 a.m.-3 p.m., on Saturday, April 30, at the White Violet Center Greenhouse.

The plant sale began in 2020, but was conducted online. The center had its first in-person event in 2021.

White Violet Center garden manager Candace Minster said many people attended last year’s outdoor event.

“The turnout we had was fantastic,” Minster said. “We had so many people last year that we have extended our Saturday hours this year.”

Minster said the sale will include a variety of organically grown vegetables, flowers and herb plants.

“We will have garden favorites like peppers and tomatoes,” she said, “in addition to about two dozen types of flowers, some of which will be garden ready. We’ll have cut flowers again this year and we will also be offering culinary herbs. We’ll have a good variety of items.”

Minster added the sale will include dahlia tubers this year as well.

Cash and credit cards will be accepted.
