<h2>Get Ready to See Autumn in a Whole New Light!</h2>
Saturday, Sept 12, 9 – 11 amIndian Hill Park, Winnetka

DON'T HANG UP YOUR TROWEL JUST YET — Go Green Winnetka is back and digging in for its sixth annual Fall Native Plant Sale. Turns out, September is prime planting season. Warm soil, cooler air, generous sun, and steady rain give new roots the perfect head start before the first frost rolls in.&nbsp;
Native plants aren't just pretty — they're the real MVPs of your local ecosystem. These plants pull pollinators, assist Monarch butterflies in their journeys, tackle stormwater like pros, and barely ask for a favor in return — low-maintenance, high-impact.
SAVE THE DATE: SEPTEMBER 12, 9–11 AM, INDIAN HILL PARK, 131 Wilson Street, Winnetka. Whether you're a green thumb or just plant-curious, our native plant experts will be there to help you dig up (sorry) the perfect picks for your garden. A complete plant list will be available on our <a href="https://gogreenwinnetka.org/fall-native-plant-sale" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">website</a> closer to the event.
Root for your local ecosystem — see you there!
