WALPOLE, N.H. — The Cheshire County Conservation District is currently receiving orders for its annual Conservation Plant Sale. We are offering a variety of top quality evergreen and deciduous trees, wildlife and landscaping shrubs, tender summer bulbs, perennials, ornamentals as well as berries and fruit trees.
Many of the species we offer are native, attractive to pollinators, and drought resistant. For this reason they are healthy, hardy plants adapted to our local growing conditions and beneficial to both the grower and wildlife. Once established they require less watering, fertilizers, and pesticides, saving you time and money.
This year we are working with Fedco to bring you top quality plants and Wichland Woods to bring you mushrooms for your backyard.
All of the proceeds from the sale will benefit conservation efforts in Cheshire County. Thus, in addition to improving your landscape you are helping fund conservation projects in your local community. For more information and to receive order forms, contact the Conservation District office at 756-2988 ext. 115 orlola@cheshireconservation.org or view our Plant Sale Catalogue atwww.cheshireconservation.org. Deadline for orders is: Friday, March 14th.
The Cheshire County Conservation District promotes the conservation and responsible use of our natural and agricultural resources for the people of Cheshire County by providing technical, financial, and educational assistance.
