Annual Native plant Sale

Every winter, the Conservation District purchases a large order of native, bare root plants from the Plant Materials Center to redistribute through out our community. Bare root plants have the advantage of being cost efficient because they are shipped without soil! They also have stronger root systems and benefit from being transplanted in the winter.

Pre-ordering online typically begins Nov. 1 and ends in early January, with in person pick up in late February.


We promote natural resource conservation by providing quality, conservation-grade plants at wholesale prices to the public for use in conservation-related projects.  Some examples of conservation projects include erosion control, riparian restoration, reforestation, backyard habitat enhancement, wetland restoration and wildfire mitigation.
