SUMMARY:Brookside Farm Native Plant Sale
DESCRIPTION:Brookside Farm Native Plant Sale takes place May 9 from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM at Brookside Farm\, offering a focused selection of plants designed to support local ecosystems. Set on a historic property with more than 40 acres of open space\, the event provides a setting where gardening and environmental awareness come together. It’s structured as a seasonal plant sale with a clear emphasis on sustainability and regional impact. \nThe sale features native perennials\, grasses\, and pollinator-friendly plants chosen for their ability to thrive in the local environment while supporting birds\, bees\, and beneficial insects. Native plants are typically lower maintenance and require less water\, making them a practical choice for homeowners looking to create more sustainable landscapes. The curated approach helps guide buyers toward selections that contribute to long-term ecological health. \nHeld alongside the nearby BLOOM Festival\, the event expands into a broader spring outing\, giving visitors the chance to explore multiple activities in one area. Proceeds from the plant sale support the continued stewardship of Brookside Farm as a public space and environmental resource. As a community event\, it combines practical gardening with a larger focus on conservation and shared space.
