Welcome to our Native Plant Store
We are now accepting orders for our 2025 Native Plant Sale!
PLANT INFORMATION:
Most of the plants offered in our sale are 1- to 2-year-old bare-root seedlings (no soil on the roots) that typically range in size from 8” to 24” other than a couple specialty species that are “plugs” that are grown in seedling trays. These plants tend to be smaller in stature, and may only be 3” or so tall at delivery.
Conifer trees are sold in bundles of 25, and most deciduous trees and shrubs are sold in bundles of 10, with the exception of specialty shrub species sold in bundles of 5.

The bark of the pine has been used to make baskets and canoes as well as medicinal purposes by Indigenous people. It is also a valued timber tree used, commonly used for window and door frames. The seeds of the trees are eaten by many birds such as crossbills, grosbeaks, nuthatches, Clark’s Nutcracker, chickadees, jays, and woodpeckers. The seeds are also a food source for small mammals like squirrels and chipmunks. Foliage is eaten by deer and grouse, and rodents eat the bark and wood. The tree also provides good nesting and roosting habitat and cover for animals.
