Want a Plant Business, too?

We have a lot of experience in the plant nursery business, from a brick-and-mortar shop to online sales. Would you like to have a plant biz, too?

We'll teach you how

Native Plants

We offer native plants that we propagate from the ones growing naturally on our mountain, in the marsh, and in the meadow.

Forestry, Foraging, & Farming

We have a 44 acre mountain valley with a spring-fed stream that flows through it. The plant diversity is amazing; there is much to learn.

We’re Tim & Lori

We’re creating a forest farm, where the pasture space is small and the forest is large. Inspired by the diversity of plants on our land, and desperate to help the critters that rely on them, we are also beginning a native plant nursery.

We know a lot about a little and a little about a lot, and absolutely nothing about much of what we’re doing. But we’re fairly unafraid and have a good bit of ingenuity in our genes. You, too?

Let’s saunter together

“We could never have loved the earth so well if we had had no childhood in it, if it were not the earth where the same flowers come up again every spring that we used to gather with our tiny fingers as we sat lisping to ourseves on the grass, the same hips and haws on the autumn hedgerows, the same redbreasts that we used to call ‘God’s birds’ because they did no harm to the precious crops. What novelty is worth that sweet monotony where everything is known and loved because it is known?”

Charlotte Mason in Home Education, 1886
