WEST SEATTLE WEEKEND SCENE: Compost giveaway and more at HPIC

12:09 PM: Thanks to Kay from Highland Park Improvement Club for the photo and update:

We have lots of excited gardeners getting free SPU compost plus free seeds and plants to swap- and complimentary coffee and cookies from the Highland Park Corner Store.

We are also kicking of a really fun fundraising auction. One of our board members acquired an amazing donation of 70 architectural ceramic planters which we will be offering via online auction starting today through March 12.

Find the bidding site here:

The compost giveaway is at 1116 SW Holden, on until 2 pm or until they run out.

1:05 PM: Just stopped by. Compost left! Some plants and seeds too. We’ll have a separate story later with more on the planter auction.

    @KayK, I hope you save at least a couple of the really tall and cool looking ones for entry way or patio of the future new HPIC Hall (I see an awesome one on the right side photo on the auction page!) Kudos to the donating person for their thoughtful giving 👍🏼

Sorry, comment time is over.
