Join the Southern Maryland Native Plant People for a friendly native plant swap and share—a community gathering to celebrate and support the use of Maryland coastal plain natives in our gardens and landscapes.

Bring native plants and seeds to share with others - native plants to the Maryland coastal plain only please, if you're not sure, just ask. We are happy to help.

If you're new on your native plant journey, that's wonderful - come to learn and take some plants home to get started, you don't need to bring anything to participate.

To help prevent the spread of invasive plants or troublesome insects like jumping worms, please bring your plants either as bare root or rinse them and pot them in fresh, sterile potting soil.

We also ask that you label them (Latin and common name, please!) so we don't forget what we have when we get back home.

Location: Kings Landing Park, Pavilion 1

Naturalist in charge: Karyn Molines
