Final Friday at the Rail Park: Plant Swap

September 29, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Join your neighbors and community members to swap plants, pots and garden materials at the Rail Park for our September Final Friday!

This is a rescheduled event. The July 28 Final Friday has been rescheduled to September 29.

Join Friends of the Rail Park for a plant swap and evening social for our September Final Friday!

Whether you’re a seasoned plant lover or new to the world of plant care, this event is the perfect opportunity to connect with fellow plant enthusiasts in our community. Feel free to bring your own cuttings, potted plants, seeds, pots, soil, tools, and other materials for trading. We kindly request that attendees limit the sale of plants and accessories.

To ensure your comfort, Friends of the Rail Park will provide a shaded canopy, refreshments, music, and a selection of additional pots. You’re welcome to find a cozy spot anywhere in the park to organize your trades and relax. For convenience, we have set up a central gathering and information area at the Electric Platform, where Rail Park staff will be available to provide support and chat.

Stay tuned for more exciting events in our Final Friday series!
