This year’s sale is coming right up—Mother’s Day weekend, Saturday, May 11th from 10-3 and Sunday, May 12th from 10 to noon. Location of the sale is 43080 North Fork Rd, Nehalem at the junction of Hwy 53 and North Fork Rd.
One reason we hold the sale is because we love plants and want to share them. Another big reason is that the Club is passionate about providing plants to locals at reasonable prices in a location close to home.
And for almost 25 years we have been distributing the profits from the sale back into our community to organizations that meet our mission. Since 2020 alone the Club has awarded grants totaling $12,300. Grant recipients include Alder Creek Farm, Food Roots, Hoffman Garden, Tillamook Early Learning Center, and Wheeler Waterfront Park. During the pandemic we wanted to help with food security and included Nehalem Bay United Methodist Church for their Senior Lunches and Food Pantry and North County Food Bank.
So come get some affordable plants without driving too far and help send your hard earned dollars back into our community.
Features of the sale include:
All kinds of plants: hanging baskets, planters with colorful flowers, perennials, annuals, vegetables, tomatoes, shrubs, trees, and houseplants among others.
