On September 17 and 18 Chester Townscape volunteers will again be selling spring-flowering bulbs at Chester's Fall Festival at a location between the Hearse House and the Information Booth. All bulbs are top quality, hardy, easy care, shunned by deer and voles, and expected to return year after year when grown in full or part sun and in well-drained locations. The different varieties of narcissus offered this year include early, mid, and late bloomers with a variety of colors and heights. The 2022 Bulb order form describing the Queen's Day, Mount Hood, and Sun Disc daffodil offers may be downloaded from www.chestervt.gov/chester-townscape.

Bulbs will be sold Cash and Carry from 10 AM–4 PM on Saturday and Sunday September 17 and 18. Bulbs may also be ordered in advance by September 12 for pick-up at the Fall Festival by making a check out to CCA with CT Bulbs in the memo line and sending the completed order form and check to Chester Townscape, PO Box 561, Chester, VT 05143. For additional information or for those who must make alternative pick-up arrangements, contact Polly Montgomery at 802-875-5446 or montgomerypolly@yahoo.com.

At the bulb table, Townscape's free brochures for the Main Street and the Stone Village/Depot walking tours will be available. Volunteers will also be raffling a garden pot for 2023 display in some lucky person's front yard. All sales help support Chester Townscape's seasonal floral displays which will be changed later this fall to display pumpkins, flowering kale, and corn stalks at public locations around town. These decorations beautify Chester and make it a handsome place in which to live and visit. Chester Townscape is a committee of non-profit Chester Community Alliance.
