Mom’s Day is coming up—need a gift? The Nehalem Bay Garden Club has over 30 planters and hanging baskets filled with colorful annuals and fuschias to sell at its upcoming Plant Sale.

The sale starts Saturday, May 10th at 10am and goes to 3pm. On Sunday, May 11th the hours are from 10 to noon. Location of the sale is 43080 Northfork Rd, Nehalem at the junction of Hwy 53 and Northfork Rd, with a horse sculpture in the front yard and real horses in the back yard. (Directions below)

This year we have more quantity than usual of shrubs, annuals and vegetables. We have about 500 tomatoes, lovingly cared for, and trees, herbs, ground cover and houseplants.

There are more Mother’s Day gifts and a raffle. Raffle tickets are $5 each or 6 for $20.

On Saturday only, bring your children and your tools. There will be a hands-on nature related activity for the kids and the Sharpenator will be there to put a new edge on your tools.

Either day, to help assuage hunger in our communities, please bring canned food and/or personal care items when you come. All will be donated to the North County Food Bank.

We encourage you to pay with cash or check and to round up! Nehalem Bay Garden Club donates proceeds from the sale to local organizations that share the Club’s mission.

Past recipients include Food Roots, The Wonder Garden at the Hoffman Center, Alder Creek Farm, Coyote Ridge Community Garden, Nehalem Bay Health Center, Tillamook Early Learning Center, North County Food Bank, Nehalem Bay United Methodist Church for their food programs, Nehalem Elementary Garden Program, and the mural at Nehalem City Park. The Club has awarded a total of $17,800 in grants since 2020.
