In connection with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Iowa’s plant sale fundraiser, we are partnering with the Urbandale Hy-Vee and Loki’s Garden to hold free container garden classes.

When: Saturday, May 5, at 1 p.m.

Where: Loki’s Garden, 29154 360^th Street, Van Meter

Please join us, invite a friend or two. RSVPs are appreciated but not necessary to Lisa, lmajors@bbbsia.org

Our plant sale fundraiser is still happening! Visit www.bbbsiaplantsale.org to view our selection of beautiful flowers including annual bedding plants, hanging baskets, tomatoes, peppers, patio planters and more. You have the ability to choose any variety in many different colors. Flowers make great gifts, especially just in time for Mother's Day.

You could raise graduation rates in Central Iowa just by planting flowers. Start something today in your garden.

Special thanks to our partners, E. Krieger Greenhouses, Inc., Hy-Vee and Loki’s Garden!
