Harry Powell of the , organizer of the event, says volunteers are needed on Saturday to help set up tents and tables in the morning and tear down in the afternoon, and to keep the plant categories organized.

Powell added: "Oh, don't forget, our own Grayson Mays will have his handmade birdhouses on hand for the very reasonable suggested donation of $10.00 each - what a deal!"   

Those wishing to volunteer should email Powell at tuckerhistoricalsociety@gmail.com by Thursday morning so enough box lunches can be ordered. You never know what the weather will do so volunteers are asked to dress appropriately. 

"It's the most fun you can have on a Saturday," said Powell.
