Martell, CA…The UCCE Master Gardeners of Amador County will be holding a plant sale on Sunday, April 29, from 10:00 a.m. – 2 p.m at the American Legion Hall located at 12134 Airport Rd in Martell. Start your spring gardening off right by picking up your favorite tomato or other vegetable varieties which have been propagated and cared for by Master Gardeners. Not sure what to plant? Master Gardeners can make suggestions and recommendations based on what has grown well for them in the area.

But it is not just vegetables that you will find at the plant sale. We will have flowering plants as perennial trees and shrubs. Plant list will be posted a week before the sale so go check our website and start planning http://ucanr.edu/sites/Amador_County_MGs/!

We accept only cash or check, please. Parking is free and plentiful. Come early for the best selection. All sale proceeds support free classes, programs and activities provided to the community by UCCE Master Gardeners of Amador County.

We plan to have experts on hand to answer your irrigation questions as well as home landscape and garden questions. There will be a kid’s area where youngsters can plant seeds to take home and learn what seeds need in order to survive! The UCCE Master Food Preservers will be on hand too, passing out samples and recipes.
