“Motherhood is one of the funniest things to laugh about. Kids keep us on our toes, make us say stupid things, and even make us do crazy things.” Mother’s Day is coming up on Sunday May 9th, so I thought I would share some local Mother’s Day Events happening in the Greater Lafayette Area! Celebrate with Mom all weekend long, and don’t forget the flowers!
Let’s give our moms another fond memory this Mother’s Day! Here are some fun ideas to make memories with Mom locally.
Native Plant Sale – Prophetstown State Park
*Registration required* Shop our native plant selection right from the greenhouse at Prophetstown State Park on May 6th or 7th! Proceeds support habitat restoration efforts at multiple Indiana State Parks. Registration opens April 25th. All plants sold from the Prophetstown State Park greenhouse are native to Tippecanoe County, including varieties of: Asclepias (milkweed), Coreopsis, Helianthus (sunflower), Lobelia, native grasses and sedges, Penstemon, Rudbeckia, Silphium, Verbena and much more. Plant sale takes place at the Visitor’s Center. Access the Visitors Center through the park entrance (5545 Swisher Road, W. Lafayette,) pass under the stone bridge, and take the first right. FREE with park admission. Cash, check, and card accepted. Bring your own box or bag to carry plants! Registration required. Sign up for a 30- minute shopping slot starting April 25. Every person who plans to enter the greenhouse should register. A limited number of walk-up shopping spots available at each time slot. A list of plant species will be available on Facebook in late April (https://www.facebook.com/prophetstownsp/). No pre-orders, no bulk orders over 700. Questions?
