4-H Plant Sale

The 2010 4-H plant sale is up and running. We are changing our sale's name to "plant sale" because we are expanding our selection to include non-edible, native plants, which are a useful, pretty addition and can help your fruit plants be more fruitful.

We are selling the usual blueberry, raspberry, grape, strawberry and blackberry plants, but have a few “new” varieties to offer, such as the Ouachita blackberry, the Josephine raspberry and Chandler strawberry. Test plots show that these tend to do well in our area. We are continuing to have success with demand for the heritage apple varieties and have those in limited quantities.
