Each year we like to make you aware of seasonal native plant sales. Here is a list of all that we have collected from one end of Georgia to the other (including Chattanooga for those in the very north). Most of them are dedicated to native plants but a few have a mix; research your choices carefully to know what you’re getting. If in doubt, ask the seller directly “Is this native to Georgia?”
This list is updated as we become aware of events. If you know of a native plant sale that is not listed here, please email info@gnps.org with the information. Happy spring and happy shopping!
