Support pollinators & wildlife with native plants! We offer native and naturalized plants that are not only beautiful, but also serve a purpose by supporting pollinators, wildlife, and people!

COUNTY — Warm weather is coming, and it’s time to start thinking about your garden! Oxford County Soil & Water Conservation District is pleased to once again offer an amazing list of native plants to gardeners throughout Oxford County and the surrounding area. We will also be offering wildflower seed mixes with a variety of native and naturalized annuals and perennials to provide your yard with years of color. This is one of our biggest fundraisers of the year, and proceeds support our educational programs in Oxford County!

We have a large selection of flowering perennials, herbs, groundcovers, edible plants, shrubs, and trees. Some crowd favorites include Bee Balm, Aster, Milkweed, and Meadowsweet; several varieties of low bush, half-high, and highbush blueberries are available; and both deciduous and evergreen seedlings are being offered. Nearly 1500 species of native plants are found in Maine. They provide food, fiber and habitat for wildlife and humans. All the plants on our list are either native to New England or proven to be beneficial to pollinators and wildlife, and are not dug from the wild or invasive. We offer plants that are not only beautiful, but also serve an ecological function in our landscapes!

Conservation-focused gardening is fun, interesting, and rewarding. For more information about gardening with native plants, go to nativeplanttrust.org or visit our website at oxfordcountyswcd.org.
