When: June 28, 2025 @ 12:00 am
A very special class brought to you by Mainspring Conservation Trust, WNC Wild Ones, and Winding Stair Farm!
This event has become an annual favorite! Join us as we celebrate the importance of native plants in our landscape as well as the joy they bring to humans, mammals, birds, and pollinators alike. During this event, we will get our hands dirty and design our own native plant container gardens!
If you’re new to native plants and want to dabble and learn more, a container garden is a great entry into the game. If you’re an experienced native plant gardener, perhaps you’ll discover a new favorite plant at this event or a friend in the like-minded native plant lovers that are Planting-and-Sipping alongside you. This class is intended to be educational, fun, and creative- no experience or knowledge required!
Class fee includes locally-made, non-alcoholic drinks, a talk about the importance of native plants, a planter bag, soil, and yearling (young) native plants so you can create your take-home planter. With our guidance you’ll get to choose from a range of native plants to fit your preferences and to home landscape. You can choose up to 5 different plants for your creation. You’ll also learn how each organization plays a role in protecting the diverse native plants that live here in western North Carolina.
Registration coming soon! Tickets will be on a sliding scale, with a discount for Wild Ones members. All profits from this event are donated to Wiles Ones and Mainspring Conservation Trust.
