Native Plant Sale

www.piercenativeplantsale.com

Each year, the Pierce Conservation District offers a wide variety of bare-root, locally-sourced, conservation-grade native plants to the public. We strive to offer each bundle of native plants at the lowest cost we are able to provide to encourage our community to create better eco-systems in our, and our neighboring counties. Our pre-sale is held online with plant pick-up and a two day walk-up sale event taking place in mid-March. 
 
You should consider native plants for your landscaping, green areas, rain gardens, hedgerows, riparian areas, and more. Native plants have specifically evolved to grow in our unique environment, so they're good at handling our sometimes challenging climate and soils.

Pre-Orders will be open every year from Nov. 1st to January 15th.

Plants are sold only in bundles of the listed quantities and are sold as bare root, plug stock, or live stake, which means they do not come in pots or burlap bags. Online order payments can only be accepted using debit/credit card. The plants are harvested from the field in winter when dormant.

These conservation-grade plants have well-developed roots and are easy to handle, transport, and plant. We strive to provide large quantities of high-quality, affordable trees, shrubs, and ground coverings. The plants are primarily grown or brokered from the Washington Association of Conservation Districts' nursey located in Skagit County. 

Pre-Order pick-up and our annual Pierce Native Plant Walk-Up Sale Event hosted mid-March.

The Pierce Conservation District invites you to join us for our annual Pierce Native Plant Walk-Up Sale Event. During this two day event we open up our sidewalks, warehouse, and lobby to host the community in purchasing (or picking up their presale order of) regionally grown, conservation-grade native plants. In addition to bare-root native plants we will also be offering packets of Native Pollinator Meadow Seed Mix (for west of the Cascades) from Northwest Meadowscapes, stickers and homewares featuring native plant art from artist Brigida Swanson of Yardia, and Twulshootseed plant identification markers made in collaboration with the Puyallup Tribal Language Program. 

In order to truly make this an event, we also welcome a variety of local artists, artisans, organizations, and local small businesses that we believe help us celebrate the majesty of PNW native plants. For more up to date information, such as a list of vendors and plants, please visit the "walk up sale" page on our website. We will be updating our site as we get closer to our event days so check back often.
