A wagon may be more useful than a wallet full of cash at Saturday’s Collin County Master Gardeners fall plant sale in McKinney.
The sale is scheduled for 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, Oct. 24, at the Show Barn in Myers Park & Event Center, 7117 County Road 166. It can finish earlier if plants sell out. Times are Central Daylight Time.
Admission and parking are free, but purchases are cashless. The organizer accepts checks and debit or credit cards.
The planned selection includes locally grown perennials, shrubs, grasses and groundcovers selected for North Texas gardens. Availability can change, and Master Gardeners will be there to answer questions.
Organizers recommend bringing a cart or wagon and arriving early for the widest selection. The sale goes ahead rain or shine.
Proceeds support the association’s community outreach and horticultural education programs. The plant list and event details are available from the organizer: https://ccmgatx.org/events/fall-plant-sale/
