Friends of Baltimore Woods 2025 Native Plant Sale a Success!

Friends of Baltimore Woods thanks everyone who supported our annual sale & fundraiser with Sparrowhawk Native Plants, including customers and, most especially, volunteers. This year’s plant sale offered more than 110 native species from their website, Sparrowhawknativeplants.com. On-line ordering began on March 2nd. Thanks to a community of native plant enthusiasts, we quickly filled up all of our available sale slots. Plant pickups took place in St Johns on a balmy April 18th and 19th. A generous portion of the sale’s proceeds went to Friends of Baltimore Woods for our ongoing work on restoration and plant propagation.

Here’s a message from Nikkie West and Tracy Cozine, Sparrowhawk proprietors—the ones in the bright pink aprons:

Another annual spring native plant sale knocked it out of the park! Thanks in large part to YOU, Friends of Baltimore Woods, and your stellar crew of volunteers, this weekend’s native plant sale was nothing but happy customers and community connection. We honestly can only recall positive things about the weekend. It’s especially wonderful to see so many of your folks coming back year after year, a testament to your ability to build those authentic lasting relationships.

All in all, 538 habitat gardeners picked up 11,165 native plants and seed packs! These plants and seeds will go forth and naturally do the important work of supporting pollinators, birds and other wildlife, while fighting for climate resiliency. Thank you, FOBW, and thank you, NATIVE PLANTS!
