Had to relocate some monarch caterpillars to our backyard patch after they chowed down on our sale stash of Swamp Milkweed! A swift pet from a wandering toddler and they’re back to their feast.

Help us spot them this weekend or maybe you’ll get lucky with some stowaway cats of your own! Sales Saturday and Sunday 9-1. Check the pinned sale list for more info in our bio!

We are so back! We hope you’ve all been having a wonderful summer. While there’s still a ways to go we’re setting our sights on cooler nights, shorter days and some fall planting around the corner.

Fall retail sale dates will be announced shortly with our new inventory to boot. We’re looking forward to getting a handful of dates on your calendar to bring some new stunners to your wildlife garden. It’s not too soon to start planning!

We’ll be in touch again real soon. In the meantime send us your design and consultation inquiries at [email protected]. Space is limited as we anticipate going offline again late September for just a bit.

Join the Middle Township Environmental Commission and the Cape May County Park & Zoo for the unveiling of two new native gardens created to educate, inspire, and support pollinators in our community.
