ViewNative Plant Sale
Online Sale Starts Friday March 14th at 6pm
The plants at our facility are cultivated from seeds hand-harvested along Oregon’s North Coast. This makes them uniquely adapted to thrive in our coastal ecosystems. Native plants play a critical role in restoring habitats to create cleaner water and better habitat for fish, birds, pollinators, and people.
As a “Surplus Plant Sale” all inventory is limited and typically sells at a rapid pace! Thank you for supporting our nursery!

Greg was a brilliant, adventurous, and fun-loving eccentric who loved to cause mischief, playfully offend people's sensibilities, and make them think outside of the box. He had a love of science, nature, and philosophy. We will fondly remember him with smiles and laughter.
