Knox County Master Gardeners present their 22nd annual plant sale on Mother's Day weekend at the Knox County Nursing Home.
Master Gardeners divide some of their best varieties of perennials in an effort to raise money to help maintain the historic gardens at the nursing home. All proceeds benefit the nursing home grounds and residents program.
Come out and take a look! While you are there, take a tour of the gardens with one of our volunteers. Master Gardeners will be on-site to answer all of your gardening questions.
