*Stay tuned! The order form below will open up in early March to accept orders!

Order before noon on March 28th, 2025. Bare root stock will arrive early April and need be picked up the following week after their arrival (pickup dates are noted on order form). They should be planted as soon as possible (or kept moist in your refrigerator until you’re able to plant). Pricing varies, but is typically between $3.50-$4.25 per plant – a stellar deal for these conservative growing species compared to $8-16 for potted plants! 🐝 Our early emerging spring bumble bees will thank you!
