Perennial Plant Sale & Swap

The Essex Beautification Committee will hold its final fund-raising event on Saturday, May 23rd from 9:00 am – 2: 00 pm.

It will be a Perennial Plant Sale and Swap held at the Cupola House front porch – rain or shine.

It’s simple…just bring a potted plant or two, preferably a perennial. You may donate the plants or swap them for a similar size of something different for $1(small) or $2(large). People without plants to swap may buy plants outright for very reasonable prices. This is a fun & cheap way to get new plants for your gardens.

We are very close to our goal for purchasing flowers and barrels for Essex and Whallonsburg. We thank everyone who made and purchased baked goods for our bake sales and made donations.

We are still looking for volunteers to help plant and water the town barrels. A sign-up sheet will be at the sale.

Hope to see you on Saturday!
