Plant Sale
The Roy & Marge 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 ties 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 and Marge Bach, who were local residents and friends of the Kittitas County Conservation District. Marge served as the District Secretary for 30 years and also 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 7,000 plants into individual orders.

The Fine Print
* Orders are filled in the order they are received.
* Plants must be picked up March 30-31, 2012. Location and specific pick-up times to be announced. You will be sent a reminder of the dates, times and location of pick-up.
* No Guarantee. This is the only way we can offer affordable prices. We strive to bring you the freshest, highest quality plants available. With proper planting and care, problems are less likely to occur. We will be happy to work with you to assure the best possible survival and growth of your plants.
* Conservation Grade: Plants are intended and suited for planting shelterbelts, erosion control, wildlife habitats or other conservation purposes where price is a major consideration. Plants are graded only on the merits of their possible survival. Minimal consideration is given to form or other deficiencies which may detract from their appearance in the commercial ornamental nursery trade. Size may vary considerably, although extremes will usually not be included.
* Contingencies: We reserve the right to prorate or cancel any order, in whole or part, due to strikes, labor shortages, fire, frost, flood, drought disease, casualty, errors in count, spoilage or other circumstances beyond our control.
