Lawrenceville, December 9, 2024 – Pre-orders for UGA Extension Gwinnett’s annual plant sale fundraiser begin Jan. 2. Community members are invited to support the County’s 4-H and Master Gardener projects while finding fruit and ornamental plants that thrive in Georgia soil to complement their landscape.
This year’s diverse selection of plants includes apples, blueberries, pears, azaleas, camellias and hydrangeas.
Preorders for the plant sale run through Friday, Feb. 28. Purchases can be made in person at the UGA Extension Gwinnett office located at 750 South Perry St., Suite 400 in Lawrenceville or by mailing in an order form available at GwinnettExtension.com.
Last year, the sale raised almost $5,000 for agriculture and resource programming.
“Fundraising is just one of the many ways to help cover costs of activities for our young members,” said Gwinnett Community Services Deputy Department Director Regina Miller. “We’re grateful for the continued support of our community and look forward to another successful event.”
The pickup and bonus sale is from 9 a.m. to 5:45 p.m. on Thursday, March 13 at the Davis Road entrance of the Gwinnett County Fairgrounds, located at 2405 Sugarloaf Parkway in Lawrenceville.
