Yay, we did it! Another Wild Ones plant sale in the books! Lots of planning and a little luck goes a long way. Fortunately the rain held out until late morning when most of the plants already had new homes.

The threat of rain didn't seem to deter any of you as turnout continues to grow! Thank you for your patience and patronage, particularly in the first hour or so when it's quite hectic! And thanks so much to the 30 or so volunteers that help make this happen each year!

If you missed our sale or want more plants, check out the retail locations of any of the wonderful native plant nurseries in central Ohio, including the four at the sale today - Natives In Harmony, Leaves for Wildlife Native Plant Nursery, Scioto Gardens, and Monarch Meadows Native Plant Nursery - Lyndโ€™s.

Now go out and plant with purpose, and help restore the native habitats in your yards and communities!

Hope to see you around at a Wild Ones event, or next year's plant sale, tentatively planned for May 22, 2027.

Ready for our big Wild Ones Columbus Annual Native Plant Sale? Here's your checklist to shop it like a pro.

+LOCATION/TIME: Saturday May 23rd from 9am-1pm at the parking lot of Overbrook Church, 4131 N High St. Columbus, OH. Entrance off Croswell Rd.

+SETUP: There will be 5 areas at the sale where you can purchase plants: Wild Ones Columbus, Natives In Harmony, Scioto Gardens, Leaves for Wildlife, and Monarch Meadows. Plants should be purchased separately from each.

+PLANT TRANSPORT: If you're planning to buy more plants than fit in your hands (of course you are!), consider bringing a cardboard box, crate, wagon or something else to more easily transport. We'll have some trays and boxes on hand, but not usually enough.

+PARKING: The site has a parking lot available for customers. Please follow signs as the entrance and exit will be one way only. If the parking lot is full, there is ample street parking available in the surrounding area. We just ask that you be respectful of the neighborhood and ensure you are parking legally, and not blocking traffic or driveways.

+CONTAINER RECYCLING: If you've been collecting empty plant pots and trays, Wild Ones is happy to take them at the sale and re-use for next year (anything from 2 inch plug containers up to 1 gallon pots).

+PLANT LIST: There will be a wide variety of native flowers, shrubs, and trees that support a diverse ecosystem. From staple pollinator flowers to unique finds, we'll have it all. Wild Ones plant list is provided here. Some additions to be added later, but this is most of it. Each of the native plant nurseries have plant lists on their websites, and they'll presumably be bringing some subset of that. TBD.

Less than two weeks away from our big one day only Wild Ones Columbus Annual Native Plant Sale on May 23rd! There will be thousands of native plants available in a variety of sizes and price points. With the growth of our plant sale and demand for natives, we're excited to be joined by Natives In Harmony, Leaves for Wildlife Native Plant Nursery, Scioto Gardens, and Monarch Meadows Native Plant Nursery - Lyndโ€™s. Between the 4 nurseries and the Wild Ones member plants, customers will have 5 areas at the sale to purchase plants. There will be plenty of staple pollinator plants along with many unique ones you don't often find.

Have questions about the right plant(s) for a particular location? We'll have plenty of knowledgeable volunteers on site ready to answer your questions!

If you've been collecting empty plant pots, Wild Ones is happy to take them at the sale and re-use for next year (anything from 2 inch plug containers up to 1 gallon pots). You're welcome to scavenge the pile too.

The sale proceeds of the Wild Ones plants help support the Wild Ones mission and partner organization projects around central Ohio. Buy great plants and support a great cause!

Come for the plants, and stay for the festive atmosphere! We love the energy you all bring, your excitement to plant with purpose, and your festive plant/nature themed shirts and accessories we see every year!

It may be a wet and dreary day, but that didn't stop over 100 of you from coming out for our free annual native seed swap. With over 100 varieties of natives to choose from and lots of knowledgeable volunteers on hand, there was good reason for excitement and anticipation. There are many great methods for growing native plants from seed and probably none easier than winter sowing. And January is a great month to get started!
