Events

Jeffco Wild Ones members gather to casually socialize and discuss topics of interest related to native plants.

Watch for emails from regional coordinator, Laurel Starr for details and sign up information.

Please join us for our 2nd Annual Evening Native Plant Garden Crawl and Social beginning at 5:30 pm on August 16th!

Our group will tour 4 gardens at various levels of native plant development.  We will meet at the first location (carpooling available) and visit each garden in turn.  Each homeowner will be giving a brief overview of their journey with native plant garden designing and planting, as well as successes and challenges.  Sharing experiences is a great way to grow our gardens and build community!

We’ll end the crawl with snacks, beverages and great conversation at the last garden. 

You can also drop off any of your collected seeds!

Free to members.  Non-members $5.  Registration closes on August 14th.

Join us to explore three Fort Collins gardens to see how the hosts have incorporated native plants into their landscapes and to learn from their successes and challenges. At the last garden, we will have a member social with light refreshments and a native plant swap. Please consider bringing a food item to share as well as your extra native plant seedlings! You are not required to bring plants to take some home. 

This event is for members of the Wild Ones Front Range chapter. You will be asked to enter your member number after your registration is complete.

We hope you can join us! We’ll have a variety of seed including annuals, perennials,  grasses, shrubs, and trees. We will also have information about how to grow native seed. You don't need to bring seed to attend the event or bring home seed.

If you do have native seed to share, please label each species with this information:
* Botanical Name
* Common Name
* Collection City or County, Elevation, and Year 
* Your First Initial and Last Name
* If your seed is from a wild population rather than a garden site, add “WILD”

We happily accept seed from species native to Colorado and adjacent states. Please avoid cultivars, which might not support native pollinators and wildlife. We do NOT accept seeds from plants designated as noxious weeds.

You can drop off seed before the event in Fort Collins or Longmont. Email [email protected] to coordinate. If you plan to bring seed the day of the event, email the species name(s) to [email protected] ahead of time so that we can prepare information for attendees about your seed.

We will be asking for volunteers to help at the event at a later date.

Details coming soon!
