Conservation@Home Kick-off Event: Native Seed and Plant Swap

Native plant-lovers are invited to the Autumn Abundance: Native Seed and Plant Swap hosted by University of Illinois Extension. In addition to increasing your collection of native plants, guests will also network with current Conservation@Home members and Extension staff, learn more about the C@H program, and have the opportunity to begin the certification process for their own property.

Guests are invited to bring:

Native seeds, labeled
Plant starts, labeled with roots properly washed to avoid the spread of any undesirables
A dish to share for a potluck meal

There's a mushroom costume contest to help showcase upcoming programs! Wear a mushroom print, t-shirt or full costume.
If you need a reasonable accommodation to participate, please contact Ainsley Olsen, YWluc2xleW8gfCBpbGxpbm9pcyAhIGVkdQ== or 309-547-3711.
