London Grove Plant Sale



Each year on the second Saturday in May, the Quaker Meeting sponsors a plant sale. I went yesterday to get some things for the pots around my house. It is always a wonderful time to see neighbors that one has not seen for a long time and the proceeds go for the care of the historic meeting house.



After doing this for many years, they have developed quite a system and always have it rain or shine.







In the back ground you can see the Penn Oak, which was here when William Penn first came to Pennsylvania.




One goes about and selects plants and pulls the price sticks in each plant. All the plants are placed in the circle and then one pays for the plants and goes across the road and drives the car up close to the circle and puts the plants in the car. Here you can see some of my plants in the circle waiting to be collected when I bring my car across. Now all I need to do is to get them in the soil!
