Four Grow Native!® professional members will sell a variety of native seeds, wildflowers, grasses, shrubs, trees, vines, and sedges.

The Missouri Prairie Foundation® (MPF) and host, Roeslein & Associates, will hold a native plant sale on Friday, September 30, 2022, at 9200 Watson Road, St. Louis, MO, from 3:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.

Gaylena’s Garden, Missouri Wildflowers Nursery, Papillon Perennials, and River City Natives will supply a variety of native plants for your landscaping needs. These Grow Native! professional members will donate five percent of plant sale proceeds to support MPF’s conservation work, and Roeslein & Associates will match this amount.

“The Roeslein Way Environmental Stewardship Committee is excited to co-host a native plant sale with the Missouri Prairie Foundation again this year,” said Sarah Keifer, SharePoint & Data Analyst Manager with Roeslein & Associates. “Our inaugural sale in 2021 was a huge success! It was great to see the reach of the Missouri Prairie Foundation at work as employees and community members gathered to purchase native plants from local vendors who are professional members of the Missouri Prairie Foundation’s Grow Native! program. We love supporting local businesses and look forward to continuing to spread native plants throughout the gardens within our community.”
