Op Shop has plants, compost, etc.

I went to the Op Shop today, in the old Hollywood Video store at 53rd and Lake Park. They have compost, leaf mulch, seeds, seedlings (both seeds and seedlings looked to be all vegetables and herbs), and some really unusual and beautiful flowers for gardening. Also some gardening books. Prices were decent, and they also allow trades, like if you have extra seeds, plants, pots, etc. I don't know vegetables at all, but it looked like they had many types of heirloom tomato seeds. I did buy several flowering plants that I'm looking forward to putting in tomorrow. If you've been wanting to try a flower but don't know what you're doing, the people in the garden section there are very knowledgeable.

I told a woman there about our garden, and she said to think of them if we have extra plants, seeds, etc., and want to trade for anything they have.

I believe it's open 10-6 Wednesdays through Sundays. There's a lot of other stuff there, too, like used books and clothes, and various art exhibits and activities. They don't know how long they'll be open, but they'll likely close a couple of weeks from now, or maybe as long as a month.
