It's Native Plant Sale Time (updated April 12, 2026)
There are several native plant sales around the region and the state, and we want to spread the word. Our Northern Neck Chapter of VNPS annual plant sale will be held on Sept. 12 and 13. Join and come shop on the popular Member-only Sale, Friday Sept 11 from 2:00 – 4:00 at Good Luck Cellars in Kilmarnock.
