SPRING GARDEN FAIR UPDATE 2024

By Beet 2024 07 July

The 2024 Spring Garden Fair was a big success despite Mothers Nature’s attempt to derail it! It persistently rained all day Saturday, but the public came out anyway.  On Sunday, the weather was a little better.  All the vendors I spoke to were pleased with their sales.

 

Financial Summary of the Spring Garden Fair

Total Gross Income $21,551
Expenses $8,466
Net Revenue $13,085

 

A big thank you to our students and volunteers!  They endured being cold and wet without any complaints. Without you, none of this would have been possible.

We now look forward to next year’s SGF which will be held May 3 and 4, 2025 at the Jackson County EXPO in the Mace Building and surrounding areas.

We will also hold a Fall Festival at the Extension on September 28, 2024.  If you would like to help plan these events, your ideas and energy would be appreciated. Meetings for the Fall Festival will begin soon.

Please contact either chair, Marcie Katz or Lucy Pylkki, for both of these events.
