The Guilford Historical Society will hold a Plant and Bake Sale on Saturday, May 19 , from 10:00 A.M. until 2:00 P.M. The sale will take place in the Algiers section of Guilford at Richmond's Garage at the corner of US Route 5 (the Coolidge Highway) and the Guilford Center Roads, one mile south of Exit 1 of I-91 and across from the Guilford Country Store.

The sale will feature plants- all reasonably priced and locally raised- and a variety of baked goods from some of the best cooks in the Guilford area.  Pies, cookies, and other delicacies will be offered.

The sale will benefit the Society's work in maintaining the 1822 Guilford Historical Museum, the 1837 Guilford Center Meeting House, and the 1797 Brick One Room School House. The Society also offers programs to the public on issues related to the town's history.

Persons willing to donate plants are asked to pot them in advance of the sale and then to bring them to Richmond's Garage between 8:00 and 9:00 AM on the sale day, May 19. Baked goods should also be  brought at that time. If donors of plant or baked goods have questions, they may call Mary Sargent at 257-0004 or Shirley Squires at 254-2468.
