Green your Home or Business while Supporting Small Middle SchoolWhat: Small Middle School Plant Sale - featuring the most student raised plants the school has ever offered. The emphasis is on native plants but they will also have some non-natives that are well suited to Austin's climate. A limited amount of Big tooth maples, as well as other trees, perennials, shrubs, grasses, and cacti available.  Where: Small Middle School - in front of the schoolWhen: Saturday, April 9th, 9am-1pmSmall Middle School Students are active gardeners with native plant beds now surrounding the school. Each year students raise plants for a spring plant sale. The proceeds will go toward the construction of the campus greenhouse, which they finally have a building permit for. The greenhouse is dedicated to Margaret Bamberger with the mission to study, propagate, and distribute native plants in their community.
