Greenhouse
The Greenhouse located at the Lyndon Progress Center is a "hotbed" of activity. Day Treatment participants are busy this Spring filling soil cells with dirt and planting seeds. The Greenhouse is soon brimming with flower blossoms due to the hard work of everyone involved.
Some of the plants you might find in the Greenhouse include vegetables such as tomatoes and herbs such basil and sage. You'll also find flowers of many kinds, from alyssums to zinnias. Finally, the event everyone has looked forward to arrives! The LPC Greenhouse Plant Sale is a huge success each early May. This year we will be open on May 4th and 5th from 1pm to 5pm and on May 6th from 9am to 3pm. Hope to see you there . . . and bring a friend!
