Our 2021 tomato, pepper, and eggplant sale presale has started. We also have other veggies and herbs for pre-sale as well as soil, fertilizers and supplies. You will be picking up your pre-order at our retail location, located at 5311 Scots Valley Drive in Scotts Valley, CA. We will be open for pre-order pickup customers ONLY from Saturday, March 20, 2021 through Friday, March 26, 2021. You will need an appointment to pick up your plants and must do so between March 20 and March 26. We will send you a link to the appointment site once you have placed an order. Walk-ins are not allowed during this pre-sale pick up time period. If you are unable to pick up your pre-order during that time period, send someone else, or simply do not pre-order and just come into the nursery beginning March 27. We get fresh new stock each week, and should have an excellent selection all the way through mid June.
Our plants are either in 3" pots, or in six-packs. If it isn't designated as a six-pack, it'll be in a 3" small pot. You'll be coming into the greenhouse, wearing a mask, and choosing your own plants based on your printed-out-at-home detailed receipt. Best to bring a box or wagon to take your order home in. Please only one member of your household, to reduce crowding in the greenhouses, and no pets.
