Wild Ones Newaygo Region is a new Seedling Chapter dedicated to helping local community members preserve biodiversity through sustainable landscapes. “Fall is the best time to add native plants to your yard and garden,” stated Katie Clark of NCEC. “We will have native plants from Michigan genotypes, those that are best adapted to our area, grown by Big Bluestem Farm in Bitely. We will also be able to take special orders and deliver plants to the area within a couple of weeks. And if you have questions about which native plants will grow best in your area, we will be able to help with that as well.” “At this event, you'll also learn about Wild Ones Newaygo Region. We invite community collaboration in planning the direction of our Chapter, and in creating events and programs that will help increase knowledge and practice of native plant biodiversity in our region,” added Katie. Larry Messing, the current interim Wild Ones Newaygo Region Chair, is eager to bring on members to this new Seedling Chapter. If someone is already a general Wild Ones member, or a member of a regional chapter, they can move their membership to your Newaygo Region chapter to help it grow. Wild Ones members will receive a special discount on plants at this event. Memberships can be purchased at the event.
