We are kicking things off on Friday at 10 a.m. where Shodair Children's Hospital will be holding a plant sale at their cafe. Plants of all shapes and sizes from community members, to staff at Shodair will be available for purchase, and 100% of the proceeds will help fund Shodair’s programming supplies year round.

There will also be an expert there to ask questions about the plants being sold, to see what greenery you're getting.
