Kinnikinnick Native Plant Society

Saturday, May 27th

Kinnikinnick Native Plant Society will celebrate its 20^th anniversary this year, and the regular monthly meeting will focus on our history and accomplishments 9:45 - 11:30 am at Sandpoint Community Hall.  A celebration is in order!  Rae Charlton, immediate past President of KNPS, will review the creation of the Native Plant Arboretum adjacent to the Bonner County Historical Museum. Several people who were part of the process of transforming the SW corner of Lakeview Park into our Arboretum (1998-1999) will share memories. Carol Jenkins, also a past President of the organization and chair of the committee which created our very successful book, Landscaping With Native Plants in the Idaho Panhandle, will summarize the history of that project and its relevance to current land use challenges. Please join us for the celebration and a piece of 20^th birthday cake!

Landscaping with Native Plants in the Idaho Panhandle, a publication by the Kinnikinnick Native Plant Society, is available at the following area retailers for $19.95 (see link below).   First published in 2011, it is the resource for any home garden or large landscape project where the many benefits of native plants are desired. In addition to detailed material about the listed plants there is extensive information included to accomplish successful results.  This book has been made possible with grant support, largely from the Inland Northwest Community Foundation."
