Unlike the big box stores, we do not offer our plants for sale until after the danger of frost is past. We think we have reached that milestone here in 2019, and are now declaring that the greenhouse is officially open. We have a nice selection of Tomatoes, Peppers, Eggplant, Herbs, and a few flowering bedding plants. As always, we are usually here but it is best to call ahead to make sure. The variety list commences below:
