Gardeners, Be careful out there in the extreme heat this summer. The heat index chart is at the end of this article and can help you to evaluate the effect the heat and humidity are having on your body.

If you want to know why various tribes operate native plant nurseries, below is a link to a great article written by Alex Brown, who was a fellow attendee at the recent Reforestation Pipeline Conference in Missoula, MT. We had the privilege of visiting 3 native plant nurseries during the conference of which he took great photos for this article in the link below.
Alex also did follow-up interviews with other attendees and I was pleased that he called us as well. I am very impressed with the fine comprehensive article he wrote. It inspires us to do better and more!

After 5 years, we decided it was time to readjust our prices. So soon we will be posting our new price list. The difference between each price group is based on the number of plants in a sale.
Retail: less than 100 plants
Wholesale: between 100 and 1000.
Contract: over 1000 & enough time to grow out desired species.

If you are concerned about carbon dioxide and masks, please read the following research.

New research findings contradict statements linking wearing face masks to carbon dioxide poisoning by trapping carbon dioxide.
