You may choose to do a "Plant sale" or a "Certificate Sale" in the  Spring, Fall, or Winter. or you can do a Wreath and Roping Sale in the late fall. A certificate sale would entitle the purchaser to one specific type of plant available at Hamilton Farms. Hamilton Farms provides the certificates for all certificate sales.
