Highland High School FFA to hold plant sale May 11

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — Highland High School’s Future Farmers of America class is hosting a plant sale on May 11.

Student advisor Amber Carter, and her FFA students, joined 17 News at Noon to talk about some of the items that will be available at next Saturday’s market.

Over 25 student vendors will be selling: plants, herbs, fruits, vegetables, jewelry, and pancakes. The event will also feature a Mother’s Day activity, where you’ll get the chance to customize paint a pot and plant a succulent inside. The activity can double as a Mother’s Day gift, according to Highland High student Alex.

Proceeds from the plant sale will go towards funding Highland High’s FFA programs such as fees for leadership conferences, awards and monthly events for students.

The event is happening at Highland High School located at 2900 Royal Scots Way.
