10th Annual Native Plant Sale





Come out and help us celebrate a decade of fundraising for the gardens at Clint Small Middle School.


We'll be featuring native trees, shrubs, grasses, perennials, and cacti most grown by students on campus in Margaret's House. We will have Green Academy t-shirts, too.

This year we will try something totally new. We will be selling during and after the school day on Wednesday, April 4th and Thursday, April 5th. We will start at 8:30 and operate continuously until 6:3o both days.

Our school is located at 4801 Monterey Oaks Blvd. The sale will be in and around Margaret's House which is located on the northwest part of the campus. Look for signs.



Margaret's House is dedicated to local naturalist, Margaret Bamberger, who shared her love and knowledge with dozens of classes from the Oak Hill area. Its mission is to study, propagate, and distribute plants native to this area.



Proceeds from the sale will benefit the native plant studies at Small Middle School. Cash or check only. Thank you.
