Papoose Club Plant Extravaganza at Webb

Various Locations

The Papoose Club first started selling plants on vacant lots in Ketchum back in 1961. Webb Garden Centers has been partnering with the Papoose Club for many years now. Webb graciously donates a portion of their sales during the event to the Club. ​Initially volunteers trucked plants up from afar, but with the growing popularity of the event, Papoose Club began to collaborate with local gardening businesses. ​This event takes places at Webb Garden Centers.
