Give your gardens a boost and give back to the community with the annual Kendall County Master Gardener Plant Sale 9 a.m. to 2 p.m Saturday, May 21, at the University of Illinois Extension office, 7775B Route 47, Yorkville.

The sale will feature 15 varieties of tomatoes and nine pepper varieties, along with native plants and nursery-stock perennials. Local Master Gardener volunteers started more than 700 vegetable seedlings for the event. Master Gardeners will be on hand to answer gardening questions. Plant sale payments may be made by cash or check. Proceeds support the Kendall County Master Gardener program and community projects.
