Wild Ones’ Native Plant Sale is On!
Wild Ones Keweenaw Chapter’s summer sale is up and running, with lots of pollinator-pleasing plants to choose from. Don’t see what you’re looking for? Stop back later. We have plenty of seedlings that we add to the sale as they get a little more muscular.
Garden Giveaway winners to be announced soon.
In honor of Houghton’s effort to become a Bird City, Keweenaw Wild Ones is awarding a limited number of free native gardens to local residents. The application deadline was May 15. We are now evaluating the applications and will announce the winners be for the end of May. Houghton gardeners have priority, but other Keweenaw residents will be considered.
The gardens must be in a boulevard strip or front yard, where the public can enjoy the life-giving beauty of native plants.
Check Our Our New Native Garden Signs
Keweenaw Wild Ones’ two new native garden signs are now available in our shop. Perfect for you or the native plant lovers in your life.
Welcome to the Wild Ones Keweenaw Chapter
We are on a journey to
- educate ourselves and others about the special attributes of native plants and how to incorporate them into our gardens and civic landscapes;
- create habitat that nurtures wildlife, including bees, butterflies, and birds; and
- develop resilient landscapes that absorb runoff, protecting water quality and infrastructure.
Regular meetings are held at 6 p.m., the third Tuesday of the month, often on Zoom, sometimes in person.
