Want to make a real difference for the environment? Start in your own backyard.

Join us on April 12th for the Blue Heron Native Plant Sale—your once-a-year chance to purchase native plants right here at Blue Heron. Supplied by local grower Beech Hollow Native Plant Nursery, these plants aren’t just beautiful additions to your garden—they’re ecological game-changers.

Whether you're dreaming of a vibrant pollinator patch, a hardy flower garden, or a full-blown backyard meadow, this is your opportunity to transform your outdoor space into a powerful part of Georgia’s living, breathing ecosystem.

Why native plants? According to ecologist, conservationist, and influential author Doug Tallamy, they’re one of the most powerful tools we have to restore biodiversity and protect the planet. Unlike ornamental imports, native plants evolved alongside our local birds, butterflies, and bees—and they’re essential to their survival.

🌿 These aren’t just plants. They’re:

  • Food for pollinators and birds

  • Foundations of healthy ecosystems

  • Drought-resistant and low-maintenance

  • Rarely found in traditional garden centers

Plus, your purchases help support Blue Heron’s mission to conserve and connect Atlanta’s natural spaces.

Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or just native-curious, we’ll help you find the right plants for your space—and feel good doing it. 💚
