Spring 2026

Welcome to another year of plant sales at Wildland Gardens.

This is the one time each year we open our gardens and share what we’ve been growing—hundreds of plants, carefully tended by a very small crew. This season, it’s the four of us: Jamie, Melissa, and our interns, Miles and Sophia.

This project continues to be a labor of care and curiosity. We don’t grow everything—we grow what has proven itself here. These are plants that have handled our soil, our weather, and our way of gardening.

And our way is not tidy.

We are not weekend-perfect gardeners. Beds shift, volunteers appear, and things are allowed to move and find their place. We don’t use chemicals to control insects or weeds. Instead, we try to build a landscape where life can layer in—where tree frogs, spiders, pollinators, and even the unexpected all belong.

What we offer at our sale reflects that philosophy: plants that are resilient, adaptable, and part of a larger living system.

If you have questions about plants, your garden, or how to work with what you already have, you’re always welcome to reach out. Conversations are part of this work too.
