Plant nurseries??

What is everyone’s favorite nurseries for permaculture plants? I’m looking for herbaceous perennials that I can either start from seeds or cutting. I would also like to find some good sea berry options. Any information that can be provided on the matter would be useful. I’m sure someone has already posted about this way back when so if someone could link that thread here that would be awesome. Hope everyone’s growing season is going well. Be sure to drink lots of water thru this heat spell.

On the east coast or at least eastern side, Annie's heirloom seeds has some perennial options. I like their annual seeds as well.

I believe Edible Acres in New York state sells sea berry and many other cuttings.

I’m aware of them, I buy things from them frequently. Just don’t want to buy them out of stock since they’re a smaller local nursery for NYS. Thanks for the tip.

I mostly just go for native plants. Nurseries I've bought from in the US include Prairie Moon Nursery, Outsidepride, Seedville USA, Hobbyseed &, more recently, Leaves for Wildlife. I've also gone through independent sellers on Etsy, which is good, if you can get a decent price. You might be able to get seaberry through Hobbyseed, but I'm not 100% sure, as I've never looked them up. The rest wouldn't sell it, as they primarily focus on natives, whereas Hobbyseed seems to focus on plants with landscaping or economic value. They ask you pay using PayPal, though I've ironically found that it only forces you to use PayPal if you actually make an account. Going to the checkout as a guest, it's not a requirement.

this is great information! Thank you.

Hi Travis, Have you checked out The official Permies.com seed and plant source review grid? Hopefully one of those nurseries will be of use.

That's really considerate of you to think about avoiding buying them out so others can have access too! Perhaps you've already seen it, but just in case, they have a great list of permaculture nurseries that they know or have experience with here: https://www.edibleacres.org/permaculture-nurseries
