PRESS INFORMATION:
THE HERB SOCIETY OF NASHVILLE 2016 HERB SALE
New plans for this year!
Each person waiting in line will receive a number that will guarantee their place in line (think Southwest Airlines.) It certainly will improve your experience if we are dealing with inclement weather! However, the underlying reason for a numerical system is to enable our customers to attend one or more of a series of 4 free mini-seminars that will take place before the doors open for the sale at 9AM. These seminars will begin at 8:15 AM and last approximately 15 minutes. Then we will repeat the seminars once again at 8:30. That will enable people who would like to attend two different topics to do so. This will also allow people enough time to get back in line at their original position before the doors open.
Customers will be required to have a number to enter the sale and be back in line before the doors open at 9AM.
The (4) seminars offered:
- Landscaping with Herbs can be both beautiful and useful.
- Preserving Herbs-techniques to ensure a supply of herbs all year.
- Companion Planting-how matching plants will enhance the outcome.
- Unheralded Herbs you need to know about.
Plant Day Care! We offer a place to safely place your plants while you shop for more.
Convenient Check Out Options! Check out using Cash, Check or Credit or Debit Card.
Additional help checking out! Boy Scouts will be on hand to help you check out but don’t forget to show your appreciation by offering them a tip!
