The Brodhead Watershed Association will hold its annual Native Plant Sale June 1-2 at the Pocono Township Fire Company's Carnival Building on Route 611 in Tannersville, Monroe County.

The Sale will give gardeners what they asked for: beautiful and environmentally responsible flowers and shrubs, with even more variety and inventory than in previous years.

“This year’s sale will be the biggest and best.  We’ll have over 93 different varieties of perennials totaling over 1,000 plants,” said Deb Mattie of Paradise Township, sale organizer. “Thirty-three will be new to the line-up, and we’ll have more shade plants also.”

There will also be a selection of trees and shrubs.

Almost every gardener in the Poconos wants deer-resistant plants, and the BWA won’t disappoint them. “The majority of the plants are deer resistant,” Mattie said.

“As usual, our informative signs will answer your questions and give you all the information you need,” Mattie said.

Expert gardeners will also be available to answer questions and help choose the appropriate plants for your garden.

The sale will run run from 5:30 to 7:30 on Friday, June 1 and from 9:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Saturday.

Cash, checks and credit cards will be accepted. For information, printable plant lists and suggested native plant garden designs, visit the Native Plant Sale  webpage or call 570-839-1120 or send email to: info@brodheadwatershed.org with questions.
