(WXYZ) â Oakland County is offering native plant kits to residents to expand their gardens this season as part of the Oakland County Board of Commissioners Native Plant Initiative.
Those interested in obtaining kits can pick up plants at one of two June events being hosted at the Oakland County Farmers Market in Waterford or Red Oaks Water Park in Madison Heights.
Residents can sign up here.
âWe wanted to offer native plants to residents so they can play a first-hand part in helping to protect the environment,â Commissioner Kristen Nelson said. âThe choices we make in our yard, whether itâs a lawn or on a balcony, can make a big difference to wildlife and to our local environment.â
