Is there a better place for a garden party on the Island — or anywhere for that matter — than the Old Mill in West Tisbury? Ponder the question while perusing plants you can buy for your own garden, sipping lemonade and nibbling a cookie when the Martha’s Vineyard Garden Club hosts its annual plant sale and open house at the Old Mill on Memorial Day weekend, Saturday and Sunday, May 28 and 29, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Plants for sale, lovingly grown from seeds and cuttings and nurtured by garden club members at the club’s greenhouse at the Wakeman Center, include both native and non-native species. Buddlia, geraniums, skimmia, bromeliads, deer and rabbit resistant varieties, tropicals, hanging pots, and the Dr. Van Fleet Rose, the original plant brought by the Mayhew Family in 1901, are just a few of the offerings at this plant sale. The variety will amaze and delight gardeners.

The Old Mill will be open and Garden Club members will share the history of this important West Tisbury landmark, which is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Admission is free. For more information, call 508-693-5334.
