Our Program
We are happy to announce the launch of our native plant and pollinator program. Our goal is to connect Appalachian communities with access to the beautiful native plants that make our region one of the most biodiverse in North America!
At Appalachian Headwaters Native Plants, we’re committed to reducing our plastic waste. To this end, our 2.5inch, 4inch and 1gallon sizes come in compostable pots. Our plants are available for local pickup or regional shipping. Inquire at iwalker@appheadwaters.org for more information on visiting our nursery!
