"Our plant sale features nurseries from across the Pacific Northwest, each selling a drool-worthy selection of rare, unusual, and just plain gorgeous garden plants.

For the beauty of the earth,
for the glory of the skies,
for the wonder of each hour
of the day and of the night,
hill and vale and tree and flower,
sun and moon and stars of light...

We are grateful for many beauties and for each of you. Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving Day!
