Blooms for Books!
The second annual Cedar Mill Community Library Plant Sale will be on Saturday,
May 5 from 10 am-2 pm in front of the library, located at the intersection
of Cornell and Murray. Beautify your yard, save some money, and help
the library all at the same time!
The library is once again taking pre-orders. Stop by the library
for an order form or visit cedarmill.org/library/CMCLA/
Plant_Sale_2007.html and pre-order by Sunday, April 29. Plants are to be picked up at
the library on the day of the sale, May 5. Additional plants will
be available on the day of the sale, but to avoid disappointment,
place your order now. They will again be obtaining the pre-order plants from
New Leaf Greenhouse,
Inc.
Also, this year, the library is working with Pumpkin
Ridge Gardens.
They will have herbs and unusual vegetable starts for sale on pick-up
day, May 5. Returning to help support the library is Cori Bacher,
library volunteer and gardener who will be offering potted perennials
for sale with 100% of the proceeds to the library. Cori will be on
hand to answer any gardening related questions you may have.
While you are here picking up your plants, be sure to look at the
gardening books for sale and also plan to visit the Village Gallery,
Second Edition and Tilly’s
Gelato. The Village Gallery will have garden themed arts and crafts: concrete
leaves, plant stakes, mobiles, and floral paintings. A portion of the art sales
will benefit the library. Artists will also offer face painting for children.
Second Edition will have gardening supplies, decor, pots and clothing. Present
our Tilly’s flyer (available at the library) when you purchase food and
beverages on that day and Tilly’s will donate a portion to the library.
This event is organized by library volunteers. Proceeds will benefit the
operations of your community library. If you would like to contribute
plants or help, please email Gloria Lee, Board Member and sale coordinator
at glee@portlandchinesegardens.org or call Dawn at 503-644-0043 x 121.
