Native pollinator seed packets also are available.

Details about the species offered, bundle sizes and pricing are available on the conservation district website at clallamcd.org/native-plants.

The district conducts the annual plant sale to provide affordable native plants for wildlife habitat enhancement and environment-friendly landscaping. Because of COVID-19 restrictions and reliance on volunteers to help with the sale, plants are only being sold in bundle sizes offered by the nursery this year.

Sale organizers encourage customers to join together with neighbors, garden clubs and other organizations on orders to better meet individual needs.

Plants will be available Feb. 26-27 at the Lazy J Tree Farm, 225 Gehrke Road, in Agnew.

Online ordering is available on the district’s website, or order forms can be printed and mailed to the district office.
