This is a rare opportunity you won’t want to miss. As specialists in large wetland and reclamation projects, we don’t usually host public sales—but we are setting up a market table for the first time at nine in a line brewing co this Saturday!
We’ll have local prairie wildflower pollinator garden starter kits available, featuring favorites like annual sunflower, common yarrow, and smooth fleabane.
Looking for something more established? We’ll also offer larger plugs of native species such as:

• Wild chives
• Prairie coneflower
• Wild bergamot
• Smooth blue aster
• Prairie sage
• Black eyed Susan
• Annual sunflower
• Canada goldenrod
• Three flowered avens (prairie smoke)
• Little bluestem

And as a bonus, we just might bring along some 1-gallon tomatoes, cucumbers, and melons for sale too!
Come early for the best selection—we look forward to seeing you there.
