Help pollinators and your garden this spring



Asbury, NJ  On Saturday, April 27th, the Musconetcong Watershed Association (MWA) will hold its 8th Annual Native Plant Sale at the River Resource Center -- 10 Maple Avenue in Asbury, NJ.  The event will go from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. and is held rain or shine.  Attendees will have access to local experts who can help advise them on selecting the right plants for their unique landscape.



In addition, the first 75 customers will receive a free organic seed packet donated by Pinelands Nursery!



Native plants are not only beautiful, but they are also essential to our ecosystem and local wildlife.  Because they require little to no fertilizers or pesticides, using them in landscapes and yards means less expense for homeowners.  Using native plants also reduces water consumption and lessens the amount of run-off that could reach local waterways, protecting our water.



While you are visiting, check out the native garden at the River Resource Center.  MWA’s native garden features flowering pollinator plants, shrubs, and vines that offer a lot of inspiration for what can be done on local properties.



The Musconetcong Watershed Association (MWA) is an independent, non-profit organization dedicated to protecting and improving the quality of the Musconetcong River and its Watershed, including its natural and cultural resources.  To learn more about the MWA and native planting, visit www.musconetcong.org/native-gardening.
