Local Native Plant Sales

IMG_2808bFall is one of best times to plant and many organizations offer local native plants for sale. You can get something almost every weekend in September, so you have plenty of opportunities. Beautify your yard and help feed native pollinators and birds. Wouldn’t the New York Fern (Thelypteris noveboracensis) at left cheer up that shady spot in your yard? Volunteers at the sales can give advise on what’s best for your yard.
