Our annual plant sale started many years ago during the time when our garden was on Joe Field Road (too many years ago to remember the exact date of the first sale!). Raincatchers Garden at Midway Hills Christian Church is our home now and we have continued our annual plant sale at our new location. We have always enjoyed having an in person sale on our beautiful courtyard but last year due to the pandemic we put on our thinking caps and came up with a socially distanced, online, drive thru sale. Thanks to all of our loyal customers, it was a great success!
This year, we are happy to announce that our sale will be on the courtyard again. All volunteers are fully vaccinated, masks will be required and hand sanitizer will be available. We plan to limit the amount of shoppers on the courtyard if needed so there might be a short wait directly outside the courtyard before you can start your shopping spree!!!
Now for the fun part – we have tons of decorative planters of all sizes planted with succulents, house plants and a variety of herb pots including pizza pots (a combination of a bell pepper plant with oregano and thyme). We will have a good variety of perennials, annuals, herbs, veggies, and ground cover starting in 4 inch pots or larger. We have apricot trees from Oklahoma and both red yucca and soft leaf yucca plants plus many more plants to numerous to list here. There will also be yard art and when you check out, you can select a packet of free seeds from our garden. However, a photo is worth a thousand words so please check out our slide show below to see a sample of what you will have to look forward to at our sale.
Hope to see you on the courtyard on Thursday, May 13th. More details will follow closer to the date of the sale!

So what day and time is annual plant sale?
Hi Blair, as you can see from this morning’s post, the sale is May 13, 9-2 and May 14, 9-noon. It is coming up quickly.
Thank you for making plans to come. Ann
Hi What are the hours for the sale? Can we reserve a time do I don’t come and have a long wait due to a long line? My time is limited so I’m just trying to see if a win win option is available? No worries if not, just wanted to check to know the direction I need to go. And what time would you recommend coming to be able to walk right up and look? Thanks Mary

Mary, Thank you, I think coming right at 9am on May 13 or 14 would be best for less of a line.
