The Orleans Conservation Trust protects and restores natural lands — for people and wildlife, the health of our waters, and the character of our community.

OCT Plant Sale

Dear Friend,

Join OCT for our sixth annual plant sale, which will have a native pollinator plant theme (we'll have veggies, too!). Beautify your garden while supporting native wildlife and pollinators. Proceeds will benefit OCT’s land saving work!

While you’re here to pick up some wildlife-friendly plants, stop in to one of our mini education sessions to learn about OCT’s At Home with Nature initiative, which provides homeowners with information and tools to practice nature-friendly landscaping. Attendees will also learn about the example OCT is setting at our office, restoring the surrounding landscape, including removal of turf lawn and installation of pollinator gardens and future plans for invasive plant control and the addition of a rain garden. Sessions will take place at 9:30, 10:00 and 10:30am.

Plants are being generously provided by OCT members and Lake Farm Gardens. Please do not arrive prior to 9:00 am, as we won't be ready yet.

Thank you,

Orleans Conservation Trust
