Don’t have a greenhouse, or worried your cat will destroy any new plants? Then get an early start on this year’s garden by letting the folks at Old Armory Recreation Center Greenhouse take on your plants.

The greenhouse will open March 14 at 7 a.m. Trays can be rented at a cost of $5 per tray. The maximum allowed is five trays per person.

Hurry, because only 200 trays are sold. You provide the seeds. Trays will be watered everyday, and you can check on your plants during operating hours. The hours are Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.

This program is conducted on a first come first serve basis. Reservations must be made in person at the facility.
