LFPWD Plant Exchange

We are all set to celebrate Earth Day with our Plant Exchange Kick-off event this year which will be at the District yard on Tuesday, April 22nd, 2025 from 10:00am to 2:00pm

In 2019 we started an annual plant exchange which was a great success. Thank you to the many participants and the variety of their contributions!

Beginning in APRIL and running until SEPTEMBER consider taking part in this exchange as you tend your garden, and divide plants. Come down and peruse the plants at our office near the entrance gate.

Our list of guidelines is short, please continue to:

  • Identify your donations as best you can with tags.
  • Bring your plants in pots. (We have 1 gallon pots available if you need them)
  • Leave as many plants as you take.
  • Please don’t bring invasive or noxious weed species (see more below)
  • The community of LFP is legendary for its gardens and generosity, let’s share the wealth here!

Noxious weeds -Please help control noxious weeds – King County has information and identification guides including this Citizen’s Guide.  You may even be interested in using your smartphone to report noxious weeds. Details here.


April, 2025 – We currently have a number of the following plants in our yard!
