Our plant sale will be elegant and super easy to shop this year! Why? ‘Glad you asked! Ventana Construction (WSB sponsor) generously donated the design and build of our new ‘Plant Terrace’!These plant tables are beautiful and look like a waterfall of plants just trying to flow into your arms. You won’t be able to resist!

KatherineLParticipantCould you use a couple of Black Cherry tomatoes? Only about three inches high, but sturdy – they went through yesterday’s storm without flinching.
May 15, 2013 at 4:31 am #790069
furryfacesParticipantYes!!! Thank you Katherine!
May 15, 2013 at 2:45 pm #790070
KatherineLParticipantWill leave them in your driveway today or tomorrow.

The Velvet BulldogParticipantAnd I’ll be dropping off a few super-healthy potted native Salmon berry plants, so there will be LOTS of variety at this sale!

miwsParticipantThis is happening tomorrow and Sunday, folks!
I’ll be there, but don’t let that deter you from coming by! The F3 Gang will ensure that I’ll be on my best behavior.
They’re even sending me hourly reminders today, to be sure to take a shower tomorrow morning.
So, come on by tomorrow and(/or) Sunday, buy plants and have fun!
Gotta go now. Need to figure out how this “shower” thingy works.
Guess I could Google it….. ;-)

lindaParticipantAnother bump! Lots of amazing plants!
Mike: it’s going to rain tomorrow so if you don’t figure out the shower thingy, I can bring soap. Then you’ll be able to multitask: wash yourself and your clothes at the same time. ;)
May 17, 2013 at 5:35 pm #790075
furryfacesParticipantOh my! Guess we better have some clean towels on hand for Mike. We never what he may do!

miwsParticipantThanks linda, and F3!
I thought about mentioning the rain, but it won’t dampen the Plant Sale, as it’s guaranteed to be sunny there!

miwsParticipantOkay folks, the first day of the Plant Sale is here! Starts at 10:00 am and runs until 4:00 pm, at 3809 46th Av SW, in the Charlestown Neighborhood.
And don’t forget, one of the events at this event is the Tag Your Pet it Ain’t Grafitti! event! (The Furry Face Gang are fun lovin’ Animal Lovers and Advocates. They ain’t Grammarians!)
Anyway today is the 33rd anniversary of Mt. St. Helens’ big eruption. There’s gonna be another big eruption today; an eruption of plants AND fun, at the 14th Annual Furry Faces Plant Sale!
See you there!

WSBKeymasterAll-star cast when we stopped by for a couple of photos – miws AND WSBeat correspondent Megan Sheppard were both there, as well as many plant shoppers/buyers. Gratuitous sponsor plug – the renovated house by longtime sponsor Ventana Construction looks beautiful. (And look for the Ventana touch as part of the plant-sale setup on the south side of the house …) – TR

miwsParticipantOh man, the Plant Sale was so much fun today, and the weather co-operated so nicely! The “worst” was maybe a few little sprinkles.
F3 Leader Teri, was very satisfied with the take; we had several people say “keep the change”, and otherwise contribute above and beyond the cost of their plants.
I had a great day hanging with the F3 Gang and friends, having TR and Patrick drop by, and I had a nice visit with Megan, having last seen her over 40 years ago, when we both went to Lafayette, her name is one of probably about three, that I remember of fellow students from back then, as after the 5th Grade, my family moved over to the Kitsap Peninsula for a few years, so I didn’t “grow-up” with my Lafayette Classmates.
Anyhow, the Plant Sale is on again tomorrow, with one caveat; we were unable to do the Pet Tags today, as Teri couldn’t find the tags themselves, as she’s still working to get things organized in her Ventana Construction remodeled home, that was damaged during last year’s fire.
So, if you want a tag tomorrow and the tags have not yet been located, I would suggest talking to Teri, and see if maybe she could take all of your info down, and make the tag once they are found.

miwsParticipantDay two is here!

(Note to the Boss: I should be there just a bit after 10:00)
