Cornell Cooperative Extension of Chautauqua County Master Gardeners Program will hold its 11th annual Master Gardener Plant Sale from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, May 13, at the JCC Science Building, 525 Falconer St., Jamestown.
The sale is the Master Gardners' largest community event and fundraiser of the year. Available at the plant sale will be perennials, annuals, vegetables, and herbs. There will also be gently used gardening books, equipment, and garden art.
To ensure the safety of area gardens, the Master Gardners follow recommendations from the state Department of Agriculture and Markets to reduce to exposure and transport of amynthas agrestis, or jumping worm. The roots of the perennials will be washed and repotted in new soil. Master Gardeners from the Helpline will be available to answer gardening questions and also do soil testing. Those interested can bring a soil sample and have the pH tested for free.
The Master Gardener Program is one of many programs offered by Cornell Cooperative Extension of Chautauqua County.
