Native plant gardening on a shoestring. 

Holli Richey, Dennis Bishop, Stephen Eselgroth, Bill Moll and others will discuss various ways to acquire native plants at low or no cost by cooperating with your neighbors.

    Sharing Plants – gardeners have extra plants through reseeding or division.

    Sharing Orders – 

        flats of plugs are inexpensive, but you may not want 49 plugs of one species;

        bare root shrubs and trees come in bundles of 100, but you probably want just a few.

    Sharing Seeds – many native plants grow readily from seeds which can be shared for free.
