Why Support the Delta Conservation District?

When you purchase your trees, shrubs, and native plants through their seasonal fundraisers, the proceeds go right back into the community to fund vital initiatives:

School Education: Bringing hands-on conservation, forestry, and wildlife education directly to local classrooms.

Community Events: Hosting educational workshops, land-management seminars, and environmental events for the public.

Local Conservation: Supporting programs like the Michigan Agriculture Environmental Assurance Program (MAEAP) to protect local soil and water resources and Forest Assistance Program (FAP) a state initiative to help private landowners manage their forest natural resources.

Here is what we are offering:
Native Wildflowers (Quarts): Beautiful, locally suited flowers to add vibrant color and support native pollinators.

Grasses and Sedges (Quarts): Perfect for establishing natural textures, erosion control, and healthy root systems in your landscape.

Mixed Flats & Kits: All-in-one planting combinations complete with an included planting guide to make designing your garden effortless.

Plug Flats: Ideal for larger restoration projects or filling out a native garden economically.

All of our plants are pesticide-free and grown locally to ensure they are resilient and perfectly suited for our local ecosystem.
