Spring is in full motion in the children's area right now. Habitat and RE have put in some plants, and nature has bountifully filled in the open space beside the raised beds.

Three Native Plant Society Chapters are holding sales this weekend, Saturday, March 28th. They sell only plants that have developed naturally in Texas. Check out Burnet, Salado and our own Williamson County chapter sale which meets in Georgetown. HEB is also doing an excellent job offering a section of Texas native plants at our local stores.
