10/20/2021 @ 9:00a – Town Center Planters – Fall plant removal

Posted on October 3, 2021January 31, 2025

10/20/2021 – Wednesday – @ 9:00a – Town Center Planters – Fall plant removal – Meet in front of the Welles Shipman Ward Library

Rain Date: 10/21/2021 Thursday @ 9:00a

Task: Emptying the planters. Plants are free for taking. Many make great house plants or can be overwintered for next year. (Canna rhizomes are not being given away. GPIP regrows them every year with the help of the students at Gideon Welles School.)

Tools: If you have, bring gloves, hand trowel, clippers, shovel, garden fork anything to help remove the plants. Cannas are particularly difficult at times.

Contact: Doreen Doreen.doyle@cox.net to RSVP or just show up
