Also two others - the McHenry County Defenders will have their sale on Sunday May 1st at McHenry County College from 1:00 pm until 4:00 pm. They will also have organically grown heirloom vegetable plants available. This is one of the largest and oldest native plant sales in the Chicagoland area.

The Barrington-based Citizens for Conservation have their sale on Saturday, May 7 from 9:00 am - 12:00 pm. The location is at Flint Creek Savanna on Route 22. I don't have the exact address, but it is directly across the highway from Good Shepherd Hospital. Just find the hospital then follow all the cars on the south side of the road.

V. (who will be shopping both!)

I don’t know the native plants down here like I do back home on the farm so it was interesting for sure. Was also looking through them thinking their should be a way to incorporate at least a couple to the local ecosystem somewhere in my yard.
