WSCC Book & Herb Sale Wrap-up The Braddock Ave. room was shoulder to shoulder with eager book buyers and people were lined up at Highview Farms table on Saturday morning. Lots of people enjoyed the treats served up by Marge and Co. and we sold out of all of our plants. What a great day and what a great success!
So many people worked very hard on Friday to set up and on Saturday and Sunday that we can't possible thank them all here. You know who you are and how much your participation means to the Center!
Mulberry Fundraiser
