EBRMGA PLANT MAKERS
Members of this Committee propagate plants for our Spring and Fall plant sales, which are a major source of income for our organization.
Plant Makers meets year round on Tuesdays from 8:30 to 11:00 AM during warm weather and at 1:00 PM during cold weather in the shade yard (through the tunnel to the other side of the interstate). Members may come and go as they please during this time frame.
Members bring cuttings and rooted plants which we propagate and care for between plant sales. Plants started from seed are also welcome. We would particularly like to increase our offering of native plants.

Our Spring Plant Sale held as part of Burden's Spring Garden Festival. In 2025 inclement weather caused us to move from the Rose Garden to the Pavilion and adjacent area with very short notice. |
