Each year we like to make you aware of seasonal native plant sales. Here is a list of all that we've collected from one end of Georgia to the other (including Chattanooga for those in the very north). Most of them are dedicated to native plants but a few have a mix; research your choices carefully to know what you're getting. If in doubt, ask the seller directly "Is this native to Georgia?"
