The Atkinson Garden Club is preparing for its spring plant sale Saturday.

The sale features perennials that members have dug from their garden, annuals started from seed, small bushes and trees. In addition to plants, garden books, tools, daffodil photo cards, décor pots and other garden-related items will be for sale. Orders will be taken for daffodil bulbs.

The club is also accepting plants from non-members. Donors are advised to bring healthy potted plants with labels indicating their common name and growing instructions. Donations can be dropped off Friday, May 15, from 3:30-5 p.m., or the Saturday of the sale beginning at 8 a.m. at Atkinson Town Hall.

Those who can help digging and separating plants for donation can call Garden Club member Janet Snowdon at 603-362-4779 for assistance.

The sale is held Saturday, May 16, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., at a new location, Atkinson Town Hall, 19 Academy Ave., Atkinson, N.H. This year’s sale coincides with Atkinson’s Town Wide Yard Sale.
