MNPS Spring Fling Fundraising Auction

Supporting the 2026 Native Plant Rendezvous

🌼 Auction will run from 8 am April 20th to 7 pm May 11th 🌼

Montana Native Plant Society will be convening for our 2026 Native Plant Rendezvous at the beautiful Homestake Lodge near Butte during June 26-28. To allow everyone a chance to be a part of our annual fundraiser, we are also hosting this online auction with a sampling of items from generous donors. From artwork, to gear, to Montana experiences - pick out your favorites and bid generously!   

Thank you for your support. All proceeds go to furthering our shared mission of preserving, conserving, and studying Montana’s native plants and plant communities.

BIDDING INSTRUCTIONS

You can view all items up for bid by clicking "All" items in the upper left menu of Categories.

For your convenience, in addition to regular bidding, our auction features automatic (proxy) bidding. Simply enter the maximum price you would like to bid for an item, and the system will automatically bid for you as other competing bids come in (up to your max bid). This can be an important step toward the end of the auction to avoid being outbid in the final flurry.

If you have any questions or need assistance with bidding, please call/text (406) 224-1012 or email bethmadden64@gmail.com. We will do our best to respond to email inquiries every day throughout the duration of the auction. See BiddingOwl online support also.

Item winners will receive a credit card payment link immediately following the auction. All items can be paid for quickly and easily after the auction closes through PayPal.  

You do not have to be a MNPS member to bid or win.  We will mail or ship items to winners.
