Backyard Natives

Hi native plant lovers!

More info here about location. Please bring your own trays/boxes and we are trying to minimize waste.

Also, here is an updated plant list in excel that I will be updating each day before the plant sale. We have planned to pick up some additional witch hazel, sweetshrub/Calycanthus floridus, fothergilla, clethra, etc. but have a bit of a vehicular situation. Stay tuned!

All Native Plant Lovers!

Here is the current list for Backyard Natives plant sale (April 12, 9-1pm) in Walltown, Durham, NC. I will update the list over the week if we have new availability. Feel free to send us inquiries and requests via FB messenger or to [email protected]

I hope to see some familiar and new faces on Sunday!
