Rappahannock Adult Activities’ annual Spring Plant Sale is off and running. It’s your chance to purchase a wide variety of plants while helping adults with developmental disabilities. Added this year: workshops to help customers get the most from their gardens.
Shoppers can choose from more than 100 varieties of vegetables, herbs, flowers and hanging baskets. All proceeds from the plant sale benefit RAAI, a day support program for adults with developmental disabilities in the greater Fredericksburg community.
RAAI provides essential supports that foster independence, promote inclusion and enhance the quality of life for the individuals served by the program.
