Annual Thacher Native Plant Sale

Please note there will be no “window” shopping before 10 am so our volunteers can finish setting up plants. We will have the Master Gardeners, Wild Ones Capital Region NY, Friends of Thacher, Emma Treadweall Thacher Education Center, and New York Flora Association available to talk to. There is also a beautiful view and some trails to enjoy until we officially open.

Plant Care

Our Volunteers have been hard at work this winter to update our Plant Care Signs we now have all of our signs available in a digital database with a list form in a spreadsheet. This is a project that will constantly be a work in progress as we add more native plant species! We have marked all the plant species we intend to have at the sale just note those with a red “Yes” will only be available in a Native Plant Garden Kit and will not be available for individual sale.

Plants for Sale

Our Propagation Team has been diligently growing plants for months now however they reserve the right to remove any plants from the sale if they do not look well. This will ensure your plants won’t suffer from as much plant shock.
