CALLING ALL GARDENERS!
This year’s Plant, Bake, and Yard Sale is scheduled for Saturday,
May 5th. Due to the lovely weather we’ve been experiencing, many of you may be out in your gardens already dividing plants, or in your greenhouses or kitchens starting seeds. Extra plastic pots are available at the church – they are stowed under the fire escape stairs on the west side of the building. Please help yourself if you are dividing plants and need pots. If possible, please label individual plants. (A Sharpie on a plastic knife works really well!) Donations can be left on the lawn behind the sanctuary the week prior to the event.
Please contact Jean Shildneck with any questions:
857-719-6192, or jean_shildneck@comcast.net.
Plant, Bake and Yard Sale
Saturday, May 5, 9 AM to Noon
On May 5th from 9 am - noon, we will be holding our annual Plant, Bake and Yard Sale. We are hoping to make this bigger
and better than last year. We can do it if everyone pitches in
and helps out with contributions and by volunteering to work.
Plant sale - Jean Shildneck will be chairing this portion of
the sale once again. For specific questions about this, please
reach out to Jean. As in years past, we ask that all you
gardeners out there pot up spare plants, the more the better!
The more variety and amount of plants we have the more we
can make, so start your digging.
Bake sale - Vicki Davis will chair this portion of the event. We encourage all bakers to bring your baked goodies: cookies, squares, pies, breads, whatever. We typically sell out, so the more baked goods we have to sell, the more we can make. Please remember to label your baked goods with a "No Nut Ingredients" or "Contains Nuts" label. Thank you!.
Yard sale - Sarah Murdock will chair this portion of the event. This was new for us last year and we ask all to consider participating this year. We will be putting up a sign-up sheet for those who would like to participate. If you do, you will be asked to be on site for at least a few hours of the day. We will pair folks up with others so that you won’t need to be there the whole day. For items you bring to sell, you must price everything ahead of time and pack up and take away all items not sold at the end of the sale. We ask that you consider contributing a half or greater of your proceeds to the church. So start cleaning out those basements, old toys, any old stuff you want to get rid of and sign up to participate.
Scituate Ship Shape Day
Saturday, April 28 will be “Ship Shape Day,” Scituate''s annual, town-wide volunteer effort to clean-up our public parks, playgrounds, beaches and neighborhoods. Supplies for the clean-up can be picked up at Town Hall on Saturday between 8 AM and 1 PM. The Scituate Beautification Commission, in cooperation with the Scituate Department of Public Works (DPW), sponsors this traditional spring event.
For more information please contact the Scituate Beautification Commission at 781.545.2620, email sbc@town.scituate.ma.us or visit www.town.scituate.ma.us.
