MFP’s 4th ANNUAL NATIVE PLANT SALE
Proceeds from this sale support our mission to restore, protect and enhance Montana’s rivers and wetlands
Please review the below information as we have made some changes to how we are doing things this year!
Go wild with native plants!
Through a partnership with Great Bear Native Plants in Hamilton, MFP has selected plants that can be found along our local rivers, wildflower meadows, and prairie grasslands. Why native plants? Because native plants are adapted to our local weather, soil and water conditions. Native plants also provide important shelter and food sources for wildlife and pollinators.
What’s new this year?
As the plant sale has expanded, we’re unable to pre-pack orders for all of our customers. Starting this year, we’ll only pre-pack orders exceeding $100. For orders below $100, customers are kindly asked to bring their own box or bag and we will provide them with a packing slip and help them to pack their orders on the day of pick-up.
We’ll have extra inventory available for purchase later in the day on May 10th from 1:30-3:30 PM at the Park County Fairgrounds. Please note that these plants will not be available for purchase before 1:30 PM. During this period, we’ll also be joined by experts with resources from our organization, as well as the Park County Environmental Council, MSU Extension, and others, offering guidance and tips on gardening.

Understanding What Size Plant You are Ordering
Plant sizes can be found next to the plant name in our online store. Depending on the species, plants are will come in 7, 10, 40 or 60 cubic inch plugs or 1 gallon containers. A 7 cubic inch plug, for example, has a 1.5 inch soil diameter and 5.5 inch soil depth. These are very small plants, but they’re a great way to try out new species in your yard at an affordable price and they often grow pretty quickly. Please watch this quick video put together by Aimee at Great Bear Native Plants to get a better idea of the various plant sizes.
