About the Sales
Marion SWCD holds two annual native plant sales – an autumn sale for bare roots, bulbs, and seeds and a spring sale for containerized plants. One of the goals of our sales is to get more native plants in the ground. Native plants are a perfect choice to support birds, pollinators, and wildlife, to minimize water use requirements, and to contribute to the creation of habitat connectivity across the landscape.
Plant Sale Catalog
Marion SWCD holds two native plant sales each year to help you create beautiful, diverse wildlife habitat. We hold an Autumn Native Bare Roots, Bulbs, and Seed Sale and a Spring Container Plant Sale.

Proceeds from the sale fund scholarships for students from Marion County studying natural resources at an Oregon college or university.
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 between February 21-March 1, 2025.
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.
