Plants for the People Sale

 P4P.Sticker.2021 (8) (1).png


Hi Friends,
If any on you have seen the climate change predictions for the Colorado Plateau, you may know that in the coming decades, it is predicted to get much hotter, the winters might be just as cold, and it's anyone's guess at what precipitation will do - though it is likely to be increasingly strange. Forecasts call for longer dry periods, which is going to be really tough on plants and animals. We say this, as it is, in part, our inspiration to increase access to low water use native plants to support ecosystems in transition. We just added 28 new species to our inventory, all of which are cold hardy to zone 6 or colder, thrive in sun (and partial shade) & heat, are super drought tolerant AND add beauty to a landscape. These are our 28 climate change winners for Flagstaff. Many of which we purchased a dozen or more of, so please share us with your friends! You can place orders online or come see us at 2 plant sales next week. More details below.

NEW NATIVE PLANTS 
28 new species! Lots of pollinator plants, ornamental grasses (that also make great windbreaks), a few shrubs, and some fun cacti. These were grown in Arizona.

PLANT SALES NEXT WEEK
We're doing a couple sales next week, and then may not do another for awhile. Come say hello!
  • Downtown Market @ Heritage Square - Wednesday June 23 from 4-8 pm. See attached flyer.
  • Doney Park @ 8815 Silver Valley Road - Thursday June 24 from 4-8 pm. See attached flyer.
