US (LA): LSU Tech poinsettia show, auction set scholarship fundraising record
Poinsettias are on sale at the Tech Farm Salesroom from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday-Friday.
“There are still all kinds of nice poinsettias available,” Kennedy said. “The proceeds we make from those are crucial, too, because that goes to the greenhouse fund to keep it maintained throughout the year. It’s these poinsettia sales that make the greenhouse pretty much self-supporting as far as finances go. We try not to use state money for that.”
