<p class="ql-align-center"><strong>It’s Flower Time! Annual Mother’s Day Plant Sale Is This Coming Weekend!</strong></p><p class="ql-align-center"><strong><em>Wilton Garden Club’s Time-Honored Tradition Celebrates 86 Years&nbsp;</em></strong></p><p><strong>WILTON, Conn., May 5, 2025</strong>&nbsp;– The&nbsp;<a href="http://www.wiltongardenclub.org/about-us/history/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: blue;"><strong>Wilton Garden Club</strong></a>&nbsp;(WGC) will hold its<strong>&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.wiltongardenclub.org/upcomingevents/plant-sale/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: blue;"><strong>86th Mother's Day Plant Sale</strong></a>&nbsp;this Friday, May 9, and Saturday, May 10, at the Wilton Town Center gazebo. This cherished tradition offers something for everyone, whether you’re a master gardener, a novice green thumb, or simply looking for the perfect floral Mother’s Day gift. The sale’s proceeds fund WGC’s year-round efforts to beautify Wilton and promote environmental conservation, preservation and education initiatives.</p><p>“Our&nbsp;plant sale is literally iconic,” Andrea O’Meara, WGC president, said. “We are frequently commended on its success, especially its extensive variety of plants, its rich history of 86 years, and our members’ enthusiastic dedication to the effort. We’re very proud to host such a special event for our town. It’s a wonderful way to celebrate Mother’s Day and kick off the spring growing season.”</p><p>From herbs to perennials to patio containers, the sale will feature an extensive variety of more than 4,000 plants that are sure to do well in customers’ gardens because most are locally grown by WGC members – either in their own home gardens, at the club’s community garden at Allen’s Meadows, or in the greenhouse at Wilton’s Comstock Community Center. Offerings will include:</p><ul><li>Organic&nbsp;<strong>vegetable</strong>&nbsp;<strong>and&nbsp;herb plants</strong></li><li>Stunning&nbsp;<strong>perennials</strong>&nbsp;</li><li>Colorful&nbsp;<strong>annuals</strong></li><li>Large variety of rare&nbsp;<strong>dahlias</strong></li><li>Pollinator-friendly&nbsp;<strong>plants, shrubs&nbsp;and</strong>&nbsp;<strong>trees</strong></li><li>Show-stopping&nbsp;<strong>patio containers</strong></li><li>Flowering&nbsp;<strong>hanging baskets</strong></li><li>Eye-catching&nbsp;<strong>wildflowers&nbsp;</strong>and&nbsp;<strong>native plants</strong></li><li><strong>Decorative baskets</strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>china teacups</strong>&nbsp;filled with gorgeous flowers. (*Ideal for a Mother’s Day gift!)</li><li>Beautiful&nbsp;<strong>fresh-cut floral bouquets&nbsp;</strong>(*New this year!)</li></ul><p><strong><em>The plant sale will be held – rain or shine – at the Wilton Town Center Gazebo on Friday, May 9, from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m., and Saturday, May 10, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.&nbsp;Additionally, for extra eager gardeners, a presale will be held at the Comstock Community Center greenhouse on Wednesday, May 7, from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.</em></strong></p><p>WGC members work throughout the year to prep for this amazing effort. Thousands of plants are locally dug by members from each other’s gardens during the months leading up to the sale. The members then spend several weeks potting and caring for the plants at their homes. As these plants are acclimated to Wilton weather, they usually thrive with proper care in customers’ nearby gardens. WGC plants typically also have a larger, more established root ball than plants sold elsewhere that are grown from a single plug and thus take longer to establish in the soil.</p><p>Haiku Durden, co-chair of the sale with Ann Margaret Mannix, said: “So much of what Wilton Garden Club does throughout each year is in preparation for this sale. It’s our signature event, and we love that it helps our town welcome springtime and celebrate Mother’s Day.”</p><p><strong>A Proud History</strong></p><p>Every year – rain or shine – since 1939 in May, on the Friday and Saturday before Mother’s Day, WGC has held its annual plant sale. In 1939 the sale’s venue was Wilton’s Old Town Hall with plants hand dug from members’ gardens much as it happens now. Over the years, the sale grew and moved to Center School in 1978. And in 1986, the opening of the fully automated greenhouse at Wilton’s Comstock Community Center enabled WGC to accept cuttings and plants from its members in early autumn which, still today, along with hundreds of seeds, are propagated and nurtured by members throughout the winter. To date, thousands of such plants as well as those dug from members’&nbsp;gardens are sold at the plant sale every year.</p><p><strong>A Community Effort</strong></p><p>The Wilton community is also actively engaged in the WGC plant sale. Foremost are the shoppers who come to the sale and purchase the plants every year, a tradition many of them say has been passed down from their parents. The American Legion provides much needed coffee for the sale’s volunteers, and Wilton Boy Scout troops have kept overnight watch after some plants went missing in the 1990s, naming themselves the Flower Guard. Wilton Girl Scouts recently joined the Flower Guard as well, alternating sleepover nights with the Boy Scouts. The scouts also help WGC dismantle the sale after it ends on Saturday, which the club greatly appreciates.</p><p><strong>Plants for Philanthropy</strong></p><p>Proceeds from the plant sale are used for WGC’s many philanthropic efforts which include:</p><p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Maintaining most of the gardens in town (post office; Veteran’s Memorial; town sign at Rt. 7/33; Schenck’s Island Chess Park; and Horseshoe Road Garden)</p><p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cultivating native plants and eradicating invasive plants throughout Wilton</p><p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Garden Therapy workshops with seniors at Comstock Community Center</p><p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Holiday decorations throughout Wilton</p><p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Holiday garden baskets to seniors through Wilton Social Services</p><p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Charitable donations to nonprofits such as Norwalk River Valley Trail, Norwalk River Watershed, Wilton Historical Society, Wilton Library, Green Teens at Trackside, and Woodcock Nature Center, to name just a few.</p><p>For more information visit:&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wiltongardenclub.org/upcomingevents/plant-sale/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">https://www.wiltongardenclub.org/upcomingevents/plant-sale/</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Local Business Champion: </strong><a href="https://www.foreststreetcollegecounseling.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(2, 177, 151);"><strong>Forest Street College Counseling</strong></a><strong>!</strong></p><p>Meet founder, Meg Joyce.</p><p><strong>Why did you start your business?</strong></p><p>I started my college counseling business to purposefully guide more high school students and their families in a calm, sequential manner so they are prepared to explore, apply to, and choose colleges where they will thrive. We empower students to feel proud of who they are, what they have accomplished, and where they are going.</p><p>We are committed to our core values of accessibility, excellence, growth, and calm. Families turn to Forest Street College Counseling to reduce the stress and confusion surrounding the college application process. We offer affordable rates and engage motivated families to share the work as desired. For students with mild learning differences or anxiety, we assess college support so they, too, can have a positive, successful college experience. And we ourselves are accessible – we are real, responsive people who are eager to discuss all the questions and concerns that are part of every college journey. We stay on top of developments at the industry, college, and program levels on a daily basis.</p><p><strong>What is your best-selling product/service?</strong></p><p>All of our college counseling services are provided via Zoom. Students appreciate the flexibility that remote work offers, especially during the super hectic time that is the Fall of senior year. Students start working with us any time between 8th grade and the start of 12th grade. When students start earlier, we work on high school course selection, and summer and activity planning; with older students, we tackle these items as well as a standardized testing plan, college list development, college application review, and college essay coaching. We get to know students and parents and take great care to factor academic, social, and financial fit into the college application process.</p><p><strong>How many local businesses do you use to support your business (products and services) and can you name them?</strong>For standardized test prep, we provide references to local tutors who have proven results and are a joy to work with. Longtime New Canaan resident Richard Corn (<a href="https://www.mathtutorct.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(2, 177, 151);">Math Tutor CT</a>) is the author of several popular books on SAT and ACT math prep and one of my go-to resources for families. I’ve lived in the area for nearly 30 years, raised my four children here and sent them to local public and independent schools, have deep roots in New Canaan, and appreciate every local client who comes my way.</p><p><strong>Have you "reimagined" your small business?</strong></p><p>Every student receives fully-customized college counseling services, which means we are constantly reimagining our business. Learning about students’ unique interests, strengths, weaknesses and goals is our favorite part of the job.</p><p>Visit&nbsp;<a href="https://www.foreststreetcollegecounseling.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(2, 177, 151);">Forest Street College Counseling</a>&nbsp;online&nbsp;<a href="https://www.foreststreetcollegecounseling.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(2, 177, 151);">here</a>!
