Thousands of daffodils-bulbs will be available for free for the first members of the Middleburg community to show up for the Middleburg Garden Club's Great Big Bulb Give away project, which will be held Sunday, November 3, 2019 from 12:00.-3 p.m. at the Middleburg Community Center, 300 West Washington Street, Middleburg, Va. They are handing out FREE bulbs.

Everyone is welcome. Any resident, business, civic group, garden club, church, student or school of Middleburg can pick of FREE of 20 mixed perennial daffodils as long as they are willing to plant them where they can be seen from the street for all to enjoy. Planting instructions and suggestions on where to plant bulbs will come with each bag. The bulbs will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis and handed out on the steps of the community center. There will be members of the garden club to answer common questions on fall bulb planting. We can plant now to enjoy in the spring!

The Middleburg Garden Club dedicates the Daffidol project, as a living memorial to past members who had a passion for gardening and sharing its beauty. The very first Honoree will be long time member Linda Newton whose generous donation started this project. The Middleburg Garden Club has a goal of sustaining beautiful and lasting daffidol bulbs in town while providing an opportunity for interested gardeners to enhance their homes and public spaces through local resources. We are looking forward to giving away thousands of bulbs whether you are a student, garden group, business or resident. Our wish is that it will a one of a kind garden event for our town creating beauty while building a sense of community for young and old alike.

"We are hoping to add several thousand bulbs every year to our town and surrounding areas," says club member and Chair of this event, Darcy Justen, "We have had many businesses offering to plant bulbs, the local boy scouts, churches and schools are excited to be involved". Southern States who recently moved to Upperville is also a sponsor of this wonderful event bringing free shovel and gloves.

Please join us November 3, 2019 from 12:00pm -3:00pm on the steps of the Middleburg Community center. Contact DarcyJusten@gmail.com with any questions.
