The Annual Spring Plant Sale, hosted by the UC Master Gardeners of Mariposa County, is back.
UC Master Gardeners is a program of University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources.
Meet UC Master Gardeners at the Amigo Stage area of Mariposa Fairgrounds on Saturday, April 25, from 8 a.m. to noon (or until sold out).
All of the plants sold are hand propagated by UC Master Gardeners who live locally in the foothills. You will find tomatoes in various varieties suited to the local climate.
In addition to tomatoes, there will be perennials, natives, succulents, trees, annuals, houseplants and vegetable starts.
UC Master Gardener plant educators will be on hand to address questions and support gardening interests.
Environmental Health Services will supply beneficial mosquito fish for sale. These environmentally friendly fish will consume large quantities of mosquitoes and other harmful insect larvae as well as algae in ponds and animal troughs.
If you plan to purchase mosquito fish, be sure to bring a small ice chest for transporting them home. Suggested donation is $5.
People should bring their own boxes and or a wagon for ease of shopping and transport.
Only cash or checks are accepted for payment.
