Seeking Interesting Plants...

Sean Dembrosky

As the 2015 growing season slowly but surely comes on, we're looking for new and interesting plants to bring into the Edible Acres fold.  Although we enjoy supporting other nurseries far and wide, we're always looking to both save money and keep things as local as possible.  To that end... here is a call for:

Interesting perennial / edible / medicinal plants and seeds from the Finger Lakes community!

We'd love to  hear from you if you've got an amazing rhubarb plant, a cultivar black currant that makes great fruit, a sunchoke variety thats been on your land since you got there, etc, etc.  You get the idea.  Trade and/or plant credit through Edible Acres is available for these plants, and your unique and special perennial plant can then be expanded and shared far and wide into our community.  Win win!  

Please reach out and let us know what you've got, we're excited to see it and work with new plants this season!
