Ohio Native Plants: Restoring Your Backyard Habitat with Local Nurseries

Join us for a conversation with three NE Ohio native plant nurseries as we celebrate Ohio Native Plant Month!

Native Roots, Inc., Natives in Harmony, and Meadow City Native Plant Nursery will discuss their nurseries and take questions from the audience about restoring native habitats in our backyards (e.g. invasive plant control, site preparation, native plant selection, etc).

Although early in the season, guests will have the opportunity to shop a small selection of native plants to take home from each of the vendors. Bring information about your yard conditions (sun/moisture) and walk away with some plants or ideas!
