Thurston County Conservation District’s annual Native Plant Festival and Sale will run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, March 2, at the Thurston County Fairgrounds, 3054 Carpenter Road SE, Lacey.
Native plants are the best way to naturally provide food, water, shelter, and space for wildlife. They require less maintenance than non-native plants, help reduce stormwater runoff, and increase biodiversity. Providing habitat on private property allows wildlife to move more safely through developed areas and reach the green spaces they need for survival.
Pre-orders are closed for this event, but you can still buy plants at the walk-up sale. Learn more at store.thurstoncd.com. WDFW will also be promoting our wildlife habitat stewardship program, Habitat at Home. Stop by our booth to certify your habitat – small and large – and we'll give you a sign on-site!
