Trees are for sale every weekend while flowers and vegetables go on sale the final two weekends of the month

Every weekend in the month of May The Thousand Islands Watershed Land Trust will hold a Native Tree and Plant sale at their location in Athens. Marnie Ross stopped by the myFM studio to tell us more.

  

Ross tells us where they are located.

Ross says along with the plants and trees, check out sights while you are there.
