Oliver’s Communities in Bloom committee is organizing a plant sale for Saturday May 15, at the Community Gardens plot (north-west end of the “downtown” Main Street) from 9:00 a.m. to 12 noon. The funds raised will be used to bring the judges to Oliver in July for the BC Communities in Bloom evaluation of Oliver.

The CiB committee is looking for donations of plants, garden tools, garden clothing and garden ornaments for the sale. The CiB offers pickup and storage for any donated items. Anyone wishing to donate, please contact olivercac@gmail.com for more information.

The Oliver Community Arts Council is a proud supporter of Communities in Bloom, and is responsible for awarding the “Best Bloomin’ Garden” portion of the two-year project. OCAC member businesses Paw Prints Studio and Gallery and Handworks Gallery are also supporters.
