Those looking forward to planting their gardens this spring will have to wait no longer to get a jump on things now that crocus bulbs are being sold here as part of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind’s annual campaign.
Starting today, the crocus bulbs are being sold at the Fort Frances Volunteer Bureau (located in the old CN station) and Sister Kennedy Centre.
They also will be sold at the Bargain Shop today and tomorrow, as well as at Wal-Mart tomorrow through Sunday.
Bulbs cost $5 per pot or $12 for three pots.
Many people also pre-ordered crocus bulbs, which are available for pick-up starting today at the Volunteer Bureau (open from 9 a.m.-3 p.m.)
As in past years, proceeds from crocus bulb sales go to the CNIB.
