Blaine's local green thumbs are gearing up for the Soil and Sunshine Garden Club's main event of the season, their annual plant sale slated for the weekend of May 17-18, confirmed by an announcement on the city's official website. The community-driven sale is set to unfold at 8712 Lincoln Street, running from 9 AM to 6 PM on both days. For those looking to spruce up their gardens or simply support a good cause, this sale offers a bouquet of opportunities.

According to Blaine's civic announcement, attendees can expect a diverse array of plants and flowers set at reasonable prices. The garden club, known for its commitment and toil, will be selling a plethora of plants – their efforts culminating in this fundraiser which not only supports their endeavors but also funds a $1,000 scholarship for a University of Minnesota student.

The event is a staple in Blaine's community calendar, consistently attracting garden aficionados and casual browsers alike. With the garden club's dedication, it's no surprise that the plant sale has become more than just a fundraiser; it's also a living exhibition of the town's horticultural passions.

It's not just about the sale, however. The garden club's philanthropy extends beyond their monetary scholarship, as they also take up another mission – to adorn the MAYC with vibrant planters flourishing with flowers, bringing joy and color to the community during the summer months. In essence, the annual plant sale is a continuation of the modest efforts by the garden club to weave natural aesthetics into the fabric of Blaine's life, and to nurture the minds that will lead tomorrow.
