SFA students to host plant sale on campus

Stephen F. Austin State University’s horticulture program will host a spring plant sale from noon to 2 p.m. Thursday, May 6, and Friday, May 14, at the SFA Plantery, located at 1924 Wilson Drive.

“Our students have worked hard this spring growing a great crop of plants that will do well in East Texas,” said Dr. Jared Barnes, associate professor of horticulture at SFA’s Arthur Temple College of Forestry and Agriculture. “With this plant sale, we want to show off our student’s hard work in the greenhouses, as well as the opportunities offered through SFA’s agriculture department.”

Plants available for purchase include a variety of houseplants, succulents, tropical plants and spring annuals. All proceeds support future educational projects in SFA’s horticulture program.

COVID-19 protocols will be in place to help ensure a safe shopping environment. Social distancing and face coverings are required.
