Audubon Society of Central Maryland The ASCM holds an native plant sale on the last Saturday in April each year. 2008 marks our Tenth Anniversary sale, and over the years this event has become a very propular attraction among local gardeners, and an extremely important fund raiser for our Audubon Chapter. For 2008, the sale will be held on Saturday, April 26th, from 9:00am to 2:00pm, on the grounds of the Audrey Carroll Audubon Sanctuary, just West of Mount Airy, MD. Our native plant sale provides a unique selection of fresh, healthy plant stock that is not only purchased through local sources, but is natively suited to our local area's weather and soil conditions. And along with the wide variety of plants, we make available expert advice on the planting and care requirements of the plants we sell, on habitat creation using native plants, and on many other related areas of interest. We typically have Master Gardeners from both Carroll and Frederick counties available for cousultation on the sale day, and make a range of reference and informational materials available to our customers. And did we mention that the profit from the sale of each plant or other item at our Native Plant Sale helps to provide the critical funding needed for our ongoing programs of environmental education and habitat preservation in our local area? Well, it's an extremely important point, and worth mentioning again! Please check our News page in late Winter/early Spring each year for details on our Native Plant Sales, along with information on other ASCM programs and activities. To be added to our mailing list, please call 301-831-5060 or 410-795-6546, or click here to send us an email. We truly appreciate your support! |
