Native Plant Pickup & Sale

Pickup will be Friday, June 16, 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm and Saturday June 17, 10:00 am - 1:00 pm at the Oviatt House. A limited number of native plants will be available for sale in person on the pickup days only for $10.00 per plant. Click here to view the type of native plants that will be offered. All proceeds benefit the restoration of the Oviatt House.

Per the National Wildlife Federation, native plants thrive in the soils, moisture, and weather that are native to their region. That means less supplemental watering and overall sustainability. Because of their deep root systems, they help maintain healthy soil and manage rainwater runoff.

As partners with the Richfield Heritage Preserve, we want to do our part to promote a sustainable local wildlife and ecosystem within our community, while earning the much needed proceeds to continue our restoration efforts. If you don't have the time or space to plant a kit in your own yard, consider donating a kit to the Richfield Heritage Preserve for a double community win! Thank you for your support!
