Final Update: They are all gone! We are glad to get them out to anyone who needs them. If we get more - we'll let you know!

Update: Wow! These were popular - we are glad so many were picked up! There are still some tomatoes left. We will update when they are all gone.

Free plants outside the Purdue Extension office! This is mostly tomato, pepper (sweet and hot), and basil plants. There are a few squash mixed in as well.

Come take what you can use! Grab a couple for your neighbor! Tell your local community garden leader they are available! They just need a good home! Feel free to stop by any time - they are outside on the sidewalk, and they are too much work to continue to haul watering cans out to keep them watered so, the sooner the better.

They will be available through the weekend.
