Ohiopyle Hosts Native Plant Sale - It is that time of year when we are all mowing lawns, planting flowers and doing general yard clean up.  There is no doubt that this is the time to think about putting some new plantsin the ground.  Why not think about using plants native to Pennsylvania?  They will thrive in your yard and tolerate our winters because they are native to Pennsylvania.  Always wanted to go native but didn’t know where to find the plants? Well we have the opportunity for you Saturday, May 23rd from noon-5:00pm.  It is the annual Constance Ranson Native Plant Sale at Ohiopyle State Park.  Plants will be available at the Main Falls Area in Ohiopyle.  For more information contact Barbara Wallace at 724-329-8591 Ext. 14 or email bawallace@pa.gov
