On Saturday, October 5, The Friends of Rosin Creek will be holding our third annual Native Plant Sale at Fairview Park in Chester Harbor.
In May of 2023, The Friends sponsored a successful native plant sale that raised more than $900 to help the Friends with a number of important projects, including expanding our social media and continuing a bacteria monitoring program on the creek. In cooperation with the Chester Harbor Property Owners Association (CHPOA) and the residents of Royston Shores neighborhood, we were able to get weekly tests of the water quality on the creek and publish the results with the Chester Riverkeeper.
There will be a variety of one quart perennials and one gallon shrubs.
Species availability may be adjusted last minute due to availability from the grower
but we plan to have the following.
One quart Perennials One gallon Shrubs
Blue Flag Iris Spirea Tomentosa
Mountain Mint Spicebush
Smooth Aster Elderberry
Orange Coneflower Buttonbush
Scarlet Beebalm Redosier Dogwood

All proceeds will be used for projects to benefit the Rosin Creek Watershed, including weekly water quality monitoring. And while you’re visiting the sale, check out our Native Plant Rain Garden at Fairview Park.
