The Salish Seeds Project’s popular, twice-annual wildflower sale is happening soon. Reserve plants online Sept. 10-17, and pick them up on Saturday, Oct. 2 at locations on Lopez, Orcas, and San Juan islands. All plants are produced locally by the Salish Seeds Project, a joint program of the San Juan County Land Bank and the San Juan Preservation Trust.

The online plant sale will go live at 8 a.m. on Sept. 10. To access the sale, click the WILDFLOWER SALE tab in the menu bar at.

Local wildflowers offer beauty, attract pollinators and other wildlife, and are perfectly adapted to our island habitats. This year’s fall sale features over two dozen species of potted plants, including local favorites Canada goldenrod, red-flowering currant, and nodding onion. Packets of sea-blush seed will also be available. A complete guide to the sale, including descriptions and photos of the plants, is available now on the Salish Seeds Project webpage at https://sjclandbank.org/the-salish-seeds-project-bringing-back-island-wildflowers/.
