PRE-ORDER ONLINE: Native Plant Sale

April 9 @ 12:00 pm - April 30 @ 4:00 pm

Native Plant Sale

In support of children’s environmental education

In partnership with Good Oak Ecological Services and Quercus Land Stewardship Services, we are holding a native plant sale just in time for Earth Day! Order native plants and pick them up at the Aldo Leopold Nature Center from Friday, May 1st through Monday, May 11th. Native plants are sold as 2×2 plugs and are $5 each.

 

Pre-orders begin Thursday, April 9th at NOON.

Check back here soon for the ordering link.

 

If you ordered last year… Order again!

Some of the plants are different and you can never have too many native plants. Gift them to a neighbor or friend… it’s all in support of our environment and children’s outdoor education.

  • Butterfly Milkweed (Asclepias tuberosa)
  • Common Spiderwort (Tradescantia ohiensis)
