Citizens for Conservation Spring Plant Sale 2026
Each May, CFC hosts one of the oldest and largest native plant sales in Illinois. Since its start in 1996, the plant sale has grown to selling over 20,000 plants each year, expanding native habitat in yards throughout the Chicago region. Last year we had more than 100 volunteers contribute 1,400 hours to make this wonderful event happen.
We are excited to be at our newest and largest preserve, Hill 'N Dale Preserve, located at 11801 Ridge Rd, Barrington Hills (enter from the intersection of W County Line Rd and Ridge Rd).
