Sandy Jacobson is the Environmental Education/Administrative Assistant for the District. She can assist you with general District questions, or put you in touch with one of the planners, or other District employees.  Sandy can help  you with your questions on native trees and shrubs, and other interesting topics such as:

• Native plants for Butterfly gardens
• Landscaping septic fields with native plants
• Planting and salvaging native plants

In January, the District conducts an annual native tree and shrub sale.  To kick off the tree sale, a native plant workshop is presented.  Participants view a slide show and have an opportunity to ask questions as they learn about the various trees and shrubs offered.   

In addition to the Kitsap Conservation District’s annual tree sale, other conservation districts, extension offices, and society’s offer native plants at nominal cost.  Sale events are conducted throughout the year with most occurring in the spring and fall.  If you are interested you may contact them directly at the address listed below:
