Pat BlairWith precautions in place to keep employees and customers safe, the Sheridan College Agriculture Department will hold the annual plant sale next week.
Proceeds from the sale benefit the Sheridan College Agriculture Club.
Customers will place orders by sending an email to PlantSale@sheridan.edu by 4 p.m. May 14. Those who have placed orders can pick up their plants by vehicle between 10 a.m and 6 p.m. May 15 in front of the Mars Agriculture Center greenhouse.
Those coming to get plants should enter at the southern entrance of Sheridan College on Dome Loop, then turn left on Whitney Way from the south and pull to the curb in front of the greenhouse. They must remain in their vehicles.
A Sheridan College employee wearing a mask and gloves will bring orders to customers’ vehicles and take payment. Checks or correct change is preferred to reduce money handling. All employees will stay six feet apart while processing orders and during pickup.
Those who want to see an inventory sheet with plant types and costs can go online to http://tinyurl.com/SCplantsale.
Although the form will be updated regularly, agriculture department staff say there is no guarantee of availability of plants. Department staff will send customers a confirmation email listing their final orders and prices.
