Elkhart NAG Plant Sale scheduled for first weekend in May

 

[April 24, 2024] 

On Friday, May 3rd and Saturday, May 4th, Elkhart NAG (Needs and Goals) will be hosting its annual plant sale at Village Hall in downtown Elkhart.

On Friday, the sale runs from 10 am to 6 pm and 8:00 am to noon on Saturday.

NAG will offer a variety of bedding and vegetable plants, along with flowering hanging baskets (these go fast). Everyone who buys a plant(s) will be eligible to enter for a drawing to a hanging basket.

NAG was established, by Mrs. Susan Green in 1984, with the intent of working towards the betterment of Elkhart. The main goals of the group were to provide entertainment, beautification, aid to the school, and aid to the elderly of the village. NAG funds its projects through various fund-raisers throughout the year.

In the last five years, the largest NAG project has been remodeling Veterans Park in downtown Elkhart.

Another, on-going projects is providing Lifelines, free of charge, to anyone in Elkhart that is in need. The club is currently funding five Lifelines.

Other projects NAG supports are planting and maintaining the various flower pots in the downtown area and the post office, support for post prom at MPHS, donating to the Elkhart library summer reading program, and helping with a summer food program.

With the continued support of the community, NAG will strive to help with as many projects as possible and continue to create civic pride in Elkhart. Thank you, in advance, for your generosity to our group.
