Our newly introduced garden kits cater to diverse gardening needs and environmental conditions, ensuring that you can create a haven for local wildlife.

With five specially curated garden kits, this years’ sale includes Pollinator Friendly, Dry Shade/Understory, Rain Garden, Spring Bloomers, and Shoreline Stabilizers.

"Our Fall 2023 Native Plant Sale brings an abundance of choices to enrich your outdoor spaces with native beauty and ecological significance," said Ola Pasternak, Landowner and Community Support at Kawartha Conservation. "These garden kits are thoughtfully crafted to thrive in fall planting conditions, creating an immersive experience with nature in the comfort of your own yard."

Native plants are a beautiful and low-maintenance addition to your property. They provide diverse and colourful pollinator habitat and grow very well in our northern climate.

The perennial plants selected for this year's sale have robust root systems that reduce erosion and stormwater runoff and protect water quality. Bloom times vary throughout the seasons. Species this year include sky blue aster, dense blazing star, wild ginger, prairie smoke, and many more.

Native plants offer unrivaled benefits, requiring minimal maintenance, enhancing local biodiversity, and promoting soil health.

To secure your desired plants, place your order using our convenient online form before Thursday, September 7. The plant pickup will take place at Ken Reid Conservation Area on Saturday, September 16, 2023, between 9 am and 12 noon.
