The Lower Shore Land Trust (LSLT) is excited to announce

that our annual Native Plant Sale is open for business! As

one of the organization’s largest and most beloved

fundraising events, this sale plays a crucial role in

promoting ecological diversity in the lower shore

communities. For over 17 years, LSLT has been dedicated

to enhancing local ecosystems, and providing native and

native cultivar perennials, shrubs, and trees. This event is an

excellent opportunity for community members to share and

support this mission.

​

Each year, LSLT cultivates locally sourced  selections of

native plants  specifically chosen to thrive in the region’s

unique environment. By bringing these hard-to-find natives

to our lower shore, customers are contributing to a healthier and more balanced ecosystem. From the beach, to woodlands, and urban areas in between native species are more adaptable to our local ecotone, tolerating clay, wet or sandy dry soils. Studies have proven

native species are more drought tolerant and pest

resistant. And, let’s not forget the added benefit of blooms

and seeds favored by our native pollinators and wildlife.

By purchasing these plants, residents are   contributing

to the larger restoration and preservation of native habitats.

 

This year’s sale includes an impressive variety of 170

different plants, offering everything from flowering

perennials to shrubsand trees. Whether you’re an

experienced gardener or just starting out, there is a plant

for everyone. The wide range of available species ensures

that our customers can find plants that suit their individual

gardening needs and preferences, Native Plant Sale has become a beacon of spring for many in our 

community. Its success each year can be attributed to the generosity of participants and supporters. LSLT continues to grow and appreciates the ongoing enthusiasm and commitment to ecological preservation shown by its supporters. Be sure to visit the sale with the button above.
