Native Plant Sales

About the Sales

Marion SWCD is trying something new this year with two seasonal native plant sales designed to help you bring more habitat home. Our new winter sale features bare-root native plants available online through December 2025, followed by our container plant sale opening in mid-January 2026.

New format, same goals! Planting native plants—whether bare-root or container-grown—help to establish healthy, resilient habitats across the landscape that adapt quickly to local conditions. Native species require less water and maintenance, support local pollinators and wildlife, and contribute to long-term habitat connectivity, making them a smart and sustainable choice for any property or landscape.

Stan Vistica Memorial Scholarship

Our native plant sales are fundraisers for the Stan Vistica Memorial Scholarship, which offers support for students from Marion County studying natural resources or agriculture at an Oregon college or university. The scholarship was established in 2006 in honor of an outstanding conservationist and former Board Member, Stan Vistica. The scholarship is administered through the Office of Student Access and Completion.

Native Plant Sale Volunteers

Each year Marion SWCD hosts a Native Plant Sale to get more native plants in the ground. The plant sale is a great chance for volunteers to meet other native plant enthusiasts and learn more about native plants by helping us fill customer orders. Sign up to volunteer with us.

Refund and Cancellation Policy

We provide refunds for plants that become unavailable before the pick up dates (usually this is due to crop failures).

All sales are final once you leave the order pick up event. Customers should check their orders before they leave to ensure their order is complete. We may not be able to make any substitutions and will refund you for any missing plants at that time.

Marion SWCD is not responsible for any orders that are not picked up at the pick up event. All leftover plants, including orders that are not picked up, will be donated to restoration projects.
