Daffodil Days is a much loved program that has offered daffodils to donors in appreciation for their contributions since 1973.  But it is more than just giving beautiful flowers; it provides funding for the research, education, advocacy and patient support of the American Cancer Society.
Bunches of daffodils will be available for donations, while supplies last, the week of March 15th at Ben Franklin and Lake of the Woods Foods.  Also that week, volunteers will distribute flowers to those who previously ordered products.
