 Save the Date - VT Wetland Plants Tour!

They propagate their native plants from seed and cuttings collected in habitats throughout Vermont. They sell seed (individual species) and seed mixes for wet meadows, stormwater basins, swales, and wetlands such as bogs, swamps, and marshes. They also provide bioengineering materials for riverbank and shoreline stabilization projects.
VWPS also operates an online retail store Green Mountain Natives (https://greenmountainnatives.com), where they offer their inventory of plants to homeowners creating wildlife habitats with native plants. Sub-aquatics, emergent herbaceous, ferns, woodlands, grasses and sedges, and wildflowers for shipping or pickup at the nursery.
The event is free, and there will be snacks and cold drinks!

‘Vermont Solstice’
Vermont ASLA Commissioned Sabra Field Print 

The Vermont chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects (VTASLA) commissioned world-renowned Vermont printmaker Sabra Field in 2005 to create a piece to celebrate the beauty of Vermont’s landscape. Best known for her design of the 1991 Vermont Bicentennial stamp, Sabra Field has been printmaking in Vermont for over 36 years. Her work has been the subject of over 50 special exhibits around the world, and she has received numerous awards for her contributions to the arts and to Vermont culture.

‘Vermont Solstice’ encapsulates the extent of Vermont’s varied geography, from the Connecticut River on the eastern border to Lake Champlain on the west. Set during a snowy winter sunset, the stylized and highly detailed view includes natural landmarks such as Camel’s Hump, as well as the state’s trademark rolling hills and countryside pastures. Field also incorporated signs of humanity’s influence on the land, including highways 89 and 91, and indicates settled areas through the use of small, shimmering lights.

Profits from the sale of this limited-edition, hand-signed print support the Vermont Chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects. To order a print, please complete the order form!
