Acorns are coming down! Mostly the reds: pin, northern red, black. Got a few before the deer and squirrels did 🌰

9📢 Heads up ! Our last day open this season will be October 11th. That still leaves 2 weeks to get your last plants of the year into the ground.

We say if often, but fall is the optimal time to plant! Don't fall into the "rushing around trap" next May when plants have been pushed against their will to grow faster with fossil fuel heat to achieve human driven timelines. Work with nature, plant now, and don't fuss. 😎You'll have robust, ready to grow plants popping up next spring and way less stress trying to keep them watered during that first heat wave as they'll be well rooted in. 💪🏼🌱

📷: the first of a billion seeds we'll be collecting/cleaning/prepping for 2027!

Even formal yards look nicer with some native plants and will serve a much larger ecological function than the sterile, lifeless, Japanese yew and boxwoods they replaced 😀🐝
