I found a source of FREE artificial floral/plant material

Hughesville, MO(Zone 5a)

I have suspected for some time that the floral/plant arrangements from a local cematary that were lying in the ditches around it could be had but never asked until Sunday when I saw someone getting ready for a burial. I was told that anything not in the proper vases was up for grabs. Of course I would not go thru the cemetary picking up arrangments but there were 2 barrels already filled so I emptied them. There were also 2 of those nice white plastic baskets with the really high arched handles in the barrels. My grandson and I will likely go in this evening and pick up from the ditches. I can keep our yard looking nice and bright all year around with these.
My daughter is a girl scout leader and thinks they may take some to make arrangements, etc. for the scouts to sell as a fund raiser. My employer is very creative so I'm sure she can figure a use for some of them. I'm thinking wreaths, etc.
