For a quarter of a century Big Brothers Big Sisters have gained funding from their annual plant sale- the largest plant sale in the Quad Cities.

The sale offers thousands of flower choices for supporters including more than 25 annual flowers, 2000 flats and 1,500 hanging baskets. All are available in several colors.

For more than a week, the sale will be going on at different locations around the area.

The BBBS Plant Sale will be open the following dates and times:

  • Davenport- Northwest Bank & Trust Tower at Welcome Way and Kimberly – May 2-10 from 8 a.m. – 7 p.m.
  • Bettendorf- Ruhl&Ruhl Realtors at 1228 Middle Road – May 2-3 from 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. *Hanging baskets only
  • Moline- UnityPoint Health- Trinity at 500 John Deere Road – May 2-3 from 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.
  • Macomb- 1140 E. Jackson Street – May 6-9 from 8 a.m. – 7 p.m. and May 10 from 10 a.m. – 3 p.m.

“We offer the highest quality plants and a very competitive price,” said Kayla Kiesey who works with the organization. “We’ve been around for twenty-five years because our supporters are satisfied with our flowers, so they keep coming back!”

The organization’s CEO, Jay Justin, said they sell more than $100,000 in flowers each year.

“Without the proceeds from this event, it would be much more difficult to support our one-to-one mentoring programs,” Justin said.

Big Brothers Big Sisters spans more than a dozen counties in the area, including Scott, Rock Island, Henry, Whiteside, and McDonough Counties.
