East Portland Plant Buying Club updates
Hey! It has been fun meeting folks from this group who have come by for the East Portland Plant Buying Club's open garden/popup plant sales this spring. I'm hosting another on Saturday, May 30, from 11 am to 2 pm. Location and further details here.
At noon, I will do a walk-and-talk around the yard, focusing on the rain gardens, carnivorous plant bog, and newly installed frog pond, as well as the various vertical gardening setups in the food gardens. I have been gardening here since 2001, and on this almost half-acre lot, there's a mature food forest in the front yard, native-filled woods, meadow, and rain gardens. There's a lot to see!
I sent my irregular newsletter out today. The big news: saffron bulbs are now open for pre-orders. Did you know you can grow this amazing spice in a pot?!? Subscribe here for updates on pop-up sales, open gardens, skill shares, and ever-changing seasonal plant and bulb sales.
