Sponsor the 6th annual
Promote your organization while supporting the Native Plant Expo!
We need your help to operate and expand the Native Plant Expo & Marketplace! Be part of the largest event in southeastern Michigan solely focused on Native Plants!
We're thrilled to announce the remarkable growth of our audience! In 2024, the fifth year, we proudly hosted 38 vendors and exhibitors, with an impressive turnout of over 2,200 attendees. You can explore more highlights from the 2024 NPEM event and 2023 NPEM event here. This surge in interest has been phenomenal. From humble beginnings with around 1,000 attendees in 2019 and only hundreds in 2021 (due to COVID-19 limitations), we've now reached over 2,000 attendees the last two years. Furthermore, our online engagement has been on the rise. Our event webpage became the second most visited page on our website, just behind our homepage, marking a significant increase from previous years. With our dedicated team and strong partner support, we're excited to share our plans to further scale up and enhance the event onwards. Sponsorship Levels & Benefits: Your organization's contribution not only supports our event but also provides invaluable visibility to our growing audience and attendees. We offer five contribution levels, each offering increasing benefits and exposure. All sponsors will have their logos or names prominently featured on the website, mentioned in press releases, included in event reminder emails, displayed on event t-shirts or swag, and have sponsor signage at their respective tables (if attending). The higher sponsorship levels include additional perks such as a dedicated WCCD Facebook post (reaching over 2,200 followers), a feature in a WCCD e-newsletter (reaching over 8,000 subscribers), and a custom banner at the event shed entrances. These benefits are outlined in the table below: |
