OHMS FFA Spring Plant Sale is Almost Here, March 30th - April 3rd

Special Blog Post by Oak Hill Middle Biotech Teacher Sharon Reeves

The OHMS FFA Chapter is excited to invite the Baldwin community to our annual Spring Plant Sale, happening March 30 through April 3 from 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM. Come support our students and bring home beautiful, greenhouse-grown plants for your home or garden!

Spring plant sales are one of the most important activities for FFA chapters. Through this hands-on project, students grow and care for a variety of plants, from germination all the way to marketing and sales. Along the way, they develop real-world skills in plant science, greenhouse management, and agribusiness.

Why the Plant Sale Matters:

• Hands-On Learning: Students gain practical experience growing flowers, vegetables, herbs, and hanging baskets while learning about soil health, irrigation, and pest management.

• Student Leadership & Career Skills: Members work together to manage inventory, price products, and market their plants—building teamwork, responsibility, and communication skills.

• Supporting Agricultural Education: The plant sale is one of our largest fundraisers, helping support student travel to leadership conferences, competitions, and FFA events.

• Community Connection: It’s a wonderful way for our community to purchase high-quality, locally grown plants while supporting local students and agricultural education.

Event Details: Dates: March 30 – April 3 Time: 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM Location: OHMS Greenhouse Appointments Available: To schedule a visit outside regular sale flow, please email sharon.reeves@baldwin.k12.ga.us

By purchasing plants from our sale, you are directly investing in the growth, leadership, and future careers of our FFA members. Thank you for supporting agricultural education and helping our students live out the FFA motto:

“Learning to Do, Doing to Learn, Earning to Live, and Living to Serve.”
