News from Charlie

Life on the Farm – will be scheduled during the last two weeks of October; dates are still being set. This is a fun activity. If you haven’t volunteered to help out before, let Charlie know if you can do it this time.

A Plant Clinic at Southport WalMart is scheduled for Saturday, September 17 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., with a seminar on fall gardening activities from 11 a.m. to 12 noon.

Indigo Farms will celebrate Heritage Day on Saturday, October 1. We will staff a booth, conduct a plant clinic and do presentations (topics to be determined).

Don't forget the Fall Plant Sale on Friday and Saturday, October 7th and 8th.

We have ordered 5 kinds of ornamental grasses for future plant sales. On August 29, 10 trays of 32 sprigs each will be shipped and should arrive that day or the next. They will need to be potted and tended so they will be ready for sale in the spring.
