Breaking News!

We have just received confirmation that a shipment of rare and/or hard to find palms in various sizes ( 2 gal - 15 gal) will be available for purchase at the sale. These include the very rare Parajubaea torallyi (Bolivian Mountain coconut), Trachycarpus urkhrulensis, Trachycarpus oreophilus, Jubaea chilensis, and Butia odorata

Hope to see you there!

 

Did the sale go well?

 

Yes, thank you.
A good turn out and great weather

There was a lot of interest in the shipment of palms and most were gone within the first hour (very good prices even for the common Trachycarpus fortune which were selling for only $55 at over 6ft in height). There were also lots of unusual hardy edibles such as pawpaws, citrus, olives, jujube and persimmons.
