History of Trinity Forks Plant Sales

Spring Plant Sale 2010

Our spring plant sale was held in conjuntion with the Denton Redbud Festival on Saturday, April 10, 2010 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Denton Civic Center, 321 East McKinney Street.  We auctioned off a wood potting bench that was donated to us by 3-Man Products.  This was our most sucessful sale since we started having spring plant sales.  It was a beautiful spring day and there was a line of customers at the checkout from 9:45 until after 11.  There were a large number of people present for our afternoon plant give away.  It was a very enjoyable day for all the volunteers.
