2024 Ball Seed Customer Days
July 25, 2024
It was a beautiful summer day when a group of FOPCON volunteers and staff headed to Ball Seed Headquarters. Ball Seed is the primary supplier of seeds and plugs for our Annual Plant Sale.
The 13-acre site features corporate offices, greenhouses, laboratories, and trial gardens. The entire Ball staff is on hand to present the newest varieties available to the market for the coming season.
Our interest is in edibles, herbs, and annual ornamentals to include in our Annual Plant Sale 2025. The selection is huge and the color choices are dazzling. The Plant Sale committee is reviewing our favorites and is ready to make the final selections. With limited greenhouse space, we always try to include last year’s best sellers along with outstanding new arrivals. We are anticipating another successful FOPCON Plant Sale 2025.
Thank you for your continued support of our primary fundraiser in support of the Oak Park Conservatory.
Mary Ellen Murphy
2025 Chair Plant Sale Committee
