Fall Native Plant Sale: Pick Up Locations in Atlanta and Athens area
Georgia Audubon and Oconee Rivers Audubon Society are once again partnering with Beech Hollow Wildlife Farms on our Spring Native Plant Sale to bring you a large selection of bird-friendly, native plants for your landscape. Plants will be ordered online and pickup locations will be available in both the Atlanta and Athens area.
A few notes for the sale:
Please Note Updated Pickup Times/Dates Due to Impacts from Hurricane Ian
Due to concerns over the impacts of Hurricane Ian over the weekend, we have made the difficult decision to reschedule our main pickup dates for the plant sale to Saturday, October 8, in Athens, and Sunday, October 9, in Atlanta. If this is inconvenient for you, we will definitely work with you to find a more convenient time to collect your plants. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to ensure the safety of our staff and volunteers during the sorting and pickup events. If you need to pick up your plants at a different time, please email Alex LoCastro to coordinate.
Athens-area pick up at Beech Hollow Wildflowers Farm, 1575 Elberton Road, Lexington:
Atlanta-area pick up at the new Beech Hollow Location in Scottdale, 389 N. Clarendon Ave, Scottdale, GA 30079 (Decatur area)
For additional details on any of these plants, we recommend visiting the Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center Native Plant Database.
A few notes for the sale:
