Fall Plant Sale

October 18, 2024 @ 9:00 am - 3:00 pm

Fall is the ideal season to plant your landscape! Planting in the fall conserves resources like water and gives roots ample time to establish before winter. As the saying goes, “Healthy roots produce healthy shoots” During this time, woody species and perennials enter dormancy, prioritizing root growth overshoots, which results in stronger, more resilient plants.

This year’s plant sale features a selection of woody trees and shrubs, sun and shade-loving perennials, and pollinator plug kits. Most of these plants are native to the Northeast U.S., with a few introduced species from Europe and Asia.

Fall Plant Plug Kits

What’s a landscape plug? It’s a young plant with a compact root system, approximately 4 inches long and 2 inches wide. Landscape plugs are advantageous because they require less soil and establish more quickly in your garden.

Find the perfect additions to your garden with our sun or shade plug kits!

Pre-order yours today for pickup at the Visitor Center during our plant sale. A limited number of kits will also be available for purchase on the day of the event.
