The giveaways build off the successful coastal landscaping workshops which educated residents on native species and how to be use them in coastal landscapes. Species available during the giveaways include sea oats, dune sunflower, lovegrass and other coastal natives. Attendees will receive a small grouping of several species to encourage diversity and resiliency within the coastal ecosystem. Plants are available on a first-come, first-serve basis while supplies last and households will be limited to one grouping. Attendees are encouraged to bring small boxes or baskets to transport plants.
