FLORA FAUNA & FLAVORS
Machias Nursery is proud to present a fundraiser for
the Snohomish Food Bank at 6:00 pm on June 22nd
at the Snohomish Senior Center, 506 4th
St. If you support the good work that the Food Bank
does, please purchase your ticket at Machias Nursery
and come for an incredible evening. Each ticket
purchased will go into a raffle and the winner will
receive a beautiful container and a gift certificate
from Machias Nursery. We’ll have wine and beer,
plus delicious hors d’oeurves for you to enjoy while
you peruse the silent auction table.
The silent auction has wonderful offerings such as:
A basket of locally made goat's milk soap & lotion,
Mini-garden planter from Machias Nursery, a basket
of wheat bags (for muscle aches) that you can heat
in microwave or freeze, Alpaca gloves & scarves,
Fred Rowe’s exquisite chocolates, 8 hours of
weeding, trimming, and general yard cleanup by Chris
& Aleta (4 hrs. each), dog goodie basket, basket of
local Honey, and a basket of outdoor living
items. (More items will be added).
You’ll be entertained by a beautiful short film by
local producers, Sharon Howard and Mike Rosen.
Their work, including seven programs that celebrate
wildlife around the world, have won more than 100
national and international awards including multiple
Emmys and a Peabody award. They have produced
programs that touch the heart and teach the
connection we each have with Earth’s living
resources. They will answer questions after the
film.
Larry Marty of Western Auction Company will conduct
our live auction of fun things to have and do. (1) A
