Fall Plant Sale – Record Breaker at the Expo
The 2019 Annual BCMGA Fall Plant Sale, Saturday, October 19th was another record breaker! At our new location, the Bell County Expo Assembly Hall, we greeted 1,225 customers, exceeding the record breaking attendance at our Annual Spring Sale, generally a larger and better attended event! Over 3,500 plants from trees, to vegetables to herbs, to berries and more went to new homes along with Master Gardener advice and instructions on how to plant and raise our customer’s new adoptees!
The Ask A Master Gardener booth answered horticultural questions from 99 citizens and at the booth, we heard multiple times that our customers were happy to be at our new location where they had more room to shop, lines were MUCH shorter and for the first time we were able to accept credit card payments.
Pre-potted plants with autumn themes were very popular and were sold out. The Kids Zone was also popular as always and our 4H Concessions completely sold out of their hot dogs and most other offerings. Vendors were well received and provided even more shopping opportunities for our many customers.
Copious thanks go out to Phil Everett and Boy Scout Troop 153 who assisted our customers with moving and loading their purchases.
Questions or need more information call, 254-933-5303.
