Ueland Tree Farm outside Silverdale will open up a portion of its tree farm to the public to salvage native plants the weekend of Feb. 16 to 17.

Plants available for salvage include Douglas Fir, Western White Pine, Western Hemlock, Western Red Cedar, Rhododendron, Salal, Huckleberry, Oregon Grape, and Sword Fern.

Ueland Tree Farm will be open Feb. 16 and 17 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Last year more than one hundred participants took advantage of the free plants.

The tree farm is located just northwest of Kitsap Lake at the end of Lebers Lane. It includes a 1,700-acre working forest located near Kitsap Lake in central Kitsap County.

A map can be found on the tree farm's website.
