Lettuce be frank. We’re super pumped for BB Barns’ second annual Houseplant Social, which takes place Thursday, Feb. 9 from 6-8 p.m. at the gardening supercenter (3377 Sweeten Creek Rd.,Arden).

The event will feature after-hours shopping with houseplants galore for 20% off, including rare and unique varieties not typically kept in stock. In addition, there will be plant giveaways, raffles, and live music — plus sips and small bites to enjoy amongst other houseplant lovers.
