Plants will be available for sale until 2 p.m., or earlier if all have been sold. Prices for plants and planters will be set at prices far lower than commercial garden centers. All sales will be cash only. 

The plant sale will be the first fundraiser the garden club has sponsored during the pandemic. Proceeds will be used to support the club’s many civic development projects and fund annual awards given to graduating seniors from Cherokee High School and the Burlington County Institute of Technology. Civic development projects include maintaining the Main Street flower pots, Kain Garden, the LeRoy Homer Memorial Garden, The Verna Powell Memorial Butterfly Garden, and the John Inskeep House Herb and Flower Gardens. 

The Marlton Garden Tour will include seven private and public gardens in Evesham Township,  focusing primarily on sustainable gardening and the use of native plants in the suburban landscape. At each stop on the tour, representatives of various nonprofit organizations will be available to answer questions about their organization and provide information to visitors.  A list of the gardens and additional information can be found at the marltongardentour.com website.
