The North Myrtle Beach Parks and Recreation team will host its Spring Plant Swap at the J. Bryan Floyd Community Center’s outdoor courtyard on Wednesday, April 22, from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
This is a free event, open to the public. Bring any plants, cuttings, pots and tools you are willing to part with and swap them for something new to you. Come ready to learn, share and make new plant loving friends.
There will be a designated free area for plants to be donated if you are not looking to swap with others and need to condense your plant collection.
Before you arrive make sure to label all items you plan on bringing (name, care instructions, owner’s tips).
The local North Myrtle Beach Garden Clubs will be present to answer questions about gardening and things you can do to keep our city beautiful. Club information will also be provided if you wish to join their club.
South Carolina Master Gardeners will be joining with a short presentation at the start of the event, along with tips on plants that benefit the environment and are native to the area.
The local North Myrtle Beach Garden Clubs will be present to conversate and answer questions about gardening and have more information on some of the things they do to keep our city beautiful as well as club information if you are interested in becoming a part of their club.
The South Carolina Native Plant Society will be present to conversate about their organization, give tips on native vs. invasive plants and to guide what kind of plants we should be incorporating into our local areas.
Keep North Myrtle Beach Beautiful will be present for anyone that is interested in becoming a volunteer, adopting a beach access or to find out other outreach opportunities to keep our city clean and beautiful.
