Gro ‘n Sell recently donated its surplus plants from the Cultivate’25 industry trade show to several charities. The plants were donated with the approval of the many breeders who partner with Gro ‘n Sell.
Gro ‘n Sell issues thanks to its breeder partners:
“We are incredibly grateful to our partner breeders who were happy to share their plants,” says Dave Eastburn, owner of Gro ‘n Sell. “Their support allowed us to turn what would have been surplus into a source of joy for others.”
One of the main recipients was First Fruits Farm in Freeland, MD, a non-profit that grows and donates fresh produce to those in need. The farm received a large donation of plants, which they are using to create planters for people facing challenging circumstances.

“We are making planters that our different groups decide who to bless with them,” says a farm coordinator at First Fruits Farm. “Recipients include a newly diagnosed cancer patient, residents of group homes, someone who was paralyzed, and a person whose parent recently passed away. Thank you for this lovely donation to help brighten up people’s spirits.”
These donations highlight Gro ‘n Sell’s dedication to community and the power of collaboration within the industry to create a positive impact.
