The
eighth annual MHS FFA Horticulture plant sale is Thursday and Friday.
The sale of student-raised vegetable, flower and garden plants raises
money for horticulture class supplies and competitions for next year.
The plant sale is open to the public. Sales are scheduled for May 7
and 8 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the McMinnville High School greenhouse
on the corner of 17th and Hembree streets. It is open to the public.
“We rely on about $5,000 worth of plant sale funds to purchase next
year’s plants and goods for our class learning activities,” said FFA
Advisor Kerry Naylor. “This event is a student learning event and not
just a fundraising activity. We need customers for students to interact
with so that they have multiple opportunities to learn customer
relations, cash handling and promotions. This is a very rewarding and
fun exam for students.”
