Cherokee County Master Gardeners host Spring Plant Sale

The Cherokee County Master Gardener Association hosted its annual Spring Plant Sale Sunday.

Master Gardener Robert Selman said the majority of the plants for sale came from the members of the organization, though some – such as pollinators and flowers – were purchased. He noted there were more vegetables available this year than have been in the past.
