We’re excited to announce our fall plant sale fundraiser! It will be on Saturday, October 7, 2023 from 10am to 2pm (or until sold out). Starting this fall, the plant sale will be held at a new location: Dowell Ranch. Keep an eye on the plant sale webpage to stay up to date on all the plant sale details.
Large plant pre-purchase possibility
We are excited to explore something new for this fall’s plant sale. We want to try selling large plants – 3+ gallon (possibly Texas persimmon, agarita, Chinkapin oak, and others). The plant sale team will identify available plants/sizes and get back to you. Please let us know ASAP if you’d like to purchase large plants and which ones at austin.npsot@gmail.com. If we don’t receive any indications of interest, we’ll table the idea.
Call for growers
Our plant sales include plants sourced from local nurseries as well as from NPSOT members and friends. Local nurseries are having a hard time this summer between the hot weather and water restrictions, so we encourage you to contribute to the plant sale. If you might have plants to share, please let us know by completing the volunteer sign up form (there’s a section about growing) and we’ll reach out to you.
Call for pots
If you have empty pots from plants you’ve purchased in the past, please bring them to the plant sale. We’ll share them with growers who are contributing to the plant sale.
Call for volunteers
We love and really depend on your assistance to make this fundraiser successful. The sign-up sheet details the tentative “when and how-to” plan for pulling together the sale this year. Please check it out and sign up for everything that interests you. There are a lot of overlapping tasks that need to be completed. Even if we know you are coming, please fill out the form, as the result will be used as the main mailing list by the coordinators.

We very much look forward to working with you,
