Pacific High School to host spring garden plant sale on Friday and Saturday

The garden program at Pacific High School will host a garden plant sale from 2-4 p.m. on Friday, May 5, and from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, May 6, at the SouthEast Alaska Career Center (SEACC) building, 205 Baranof St. (the building behind the school).

The high school has offered students a garden club and class for several years, even hosting MOBY the Mobile Greenhouse during the 2019-20 school year. In September 2021, Pacific High School received a USDA Farm To School grant for its edible garden project. The students are growing the starts and selling them to raise money for the school activities fund. The students have flower, herb, kale and other veggie starts available.

Customers are asked to park at the Crescent Harbor parking lot and walk over to the school at 509 Lincoln Street. The starts will be available on a table in front of the school. All starts are $6-8, and people can pay with cash or checks. Masks and social distancing are respected. For more details, call 907-747-0525.
