Join us for a fun evening to connect with your fellow Wild Ones and to meet newcomers!
We will be celebrating our accomplishments in 2025, our 18th year as a chapter with a short slide presentation. The River City 2026 officers and board members will be introduced. The meeting will be followed by the Seed Swap and refreshments.
Wild Ones will be selling native plant books and related merchandise before and after the presentation. Ideal for Christmas gifts!

Attendees are encouraged to bring native seeds from their garden to share if you have them. If you are new to native plants and don’t have seeds to share, no worries, you can still take home some seeds.
Please follow these instructions for packaging the seeds:
1. Separate dry seeds from plant material
2. Enclose in an envelope no larger than letter size (one species per envelope)
3. Write on the envelope:
- Common name
- Latin name
- Sun/Shade
- Moisture – Wet/Med/Dry
- Your name
