Sales will be drop-in with no prior registration required
A variety of annual and perennial bedding and flowering plants, as well as vegetable starts and hanging baskets grown in Battle Ground Public Schools’ greenhouses by students and staff, will be available for purchase at upcoming public sales beginning later this month.
Sales will be drop-in with no prior registration required. The Northwest Native Trees and Shrubs sale on the CASEE campus will include one day where the first hour is for members only.
Money raised from these sales supports the district’s horticulture and FFA programs and welding teams. Students and staff from Battle Ground High School, Prairie High School and the FFA program grow tens of thousands of plants each year. Some of these plants are used in landscaping projects on school campuses, while the rest are sold at annual public sales.
