Native plants are adapted to our climate and soils, and require minimal water once they are established. Profits from the Native Plant Sale fund two scholarships for students from Marion County studying Natural Resources at an Oregon College or University. The Mission of the Marion Soil and Water Conservation District is to protect, conserve and improve the quality of soil and water in Marion County through planning, technical assistance and education.
