Friends Of The St. Clair River Hosts Annual Native Plant And Rain Barrel Sale

Friends of the St. Clair River is hosting its annual Native Plant and Rain Barrel Sale Sunday, Sept. 8, noon – 3 p.m., offering an ideal opportunity to enhance your garden. 

Native plants, adapted to Michigan’s climate, are easy to maintain, resist pests, and provide vital food for wildlife. Available for purchase are wildflowers, grasses, shrubs, and pre-assembled garden kits for butterflies, pollinators, and rain gardens.

The event also features 55-gallon rain barrels from Upcycle Products to help conserve water and reduce stormwater pollution. Rain barrels must be pre-ordered for pick-up on Sept. 8. Proceeds support pollinator-friendly gardens in the community.

Whether you’re planting a pollinator garden or starting with a rain barrel, this sale promotes sustainable gardening practices while benefiting local ecosystems.
