The Hannibal FFA Greenhouse Sale kicks off THIS Saturday, April 26 from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM, and if you know, you know—this is not your average plant sale.
It’s a spring tradition, a community favorite, and yes... the crowds can rival Black Friday (but way more cheerful and plant-loving). 😄
Come support our students and take home some gorgeous greenery!
