This event is the second plant sale of the year for the school, which held its spring event in March.
The fall event will focus on mums, pansies, violas and perennials, school officials said.
Visitors may find the plants in the greenhouse next to the community school and the Anderson County Career and Technical Center, behind Anderson County High School, at 160 Maverick Circle, off North Charles G. Seivers Boulevard.
Intended to raise money for agriculture programs at the school, the sale is coordinated by Kendra McCoig, agriculture teacher at the Clinch River Community School.
Sales hours are 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays, and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturdays. The school accepts cash and checks, but no debit or credit cards.
McCoig said the plans are to keep the sale going until Oct. 2, or whenever the stock of plants runs out, if that’s sooner.
Money raised from the plant sale goes right back into the agricultural educational programs for Clinch River students.
For more information, stop by the school or call 865-457-7462 and ask for Ms. McCoig
