The practice of conservation must spring from a conviction of what is ethically and aesthetically right, as well as what is economically expedient. A thing is right only when it tends to preserve the integrity, stability, and beauty of the community, and the community includes the soil, waters, fauna, and flora, as well as people. - Aldo Leopold |

We are happy to know that more native plants will fill Salt Lake County gardens and provide beneficial wildlife habitat. We want to acknowledge the patience given to us by our plant buyers as we had a large number of unexpected plant substitutions. We have learned a lot from this first sale and will be making improvements for next year. We also want to thank our many volunteers who made this sale possible as well as REI for hosting this event.
