Roy Bach Memorial Conservation Plant Sale
The Roy Bach Memorial Conservation Plant Sale is an annual fundraiser conducted by the Kittitas County Conservation District (KCCD). The proceeds go toward scholarships for educational materials and transportation costs for natural resource field trips, agricultural farm tours, and other related educational activities for local youth. Our goal is to educate the leaders of tomorrow about the importance of natural resources and to direct them toward becoming responsible land stewards.
This plant sale is named in memory of Roy Bach, who was a local resident, avid outdoorsman and friend of the Kittitas County Conservation District. His wife Marjorie served as the District Secretary for 30 years and is currently an Associate Supervisor on the KCCD Board of Supervisors.
Success of this plant sale is due primarily to donations and volunteer time. In addition to the KCCD recruited volunteers, RSVP provides volunteers to sort and bundle the 6,400 plants into individual orders. We’d like to thank the following people for their time: John Hultquist, Betty Cervine, Dick Fischer, Addie Graaff, Rodney Justice, Judy Howard, Richard & Pat Mountjoy, Ginger Jensen, Sandy Chavez, Ken Titus, Marge Bach, Darlene Carlton, Jonelle Bull, Dorothy Craigen, Hilary Foss and the WSU Master Gardeners and thanks to Mel Shenyer for providing a refrigerated trailer to protect the seedlings prior to customer pick-up.
