The Northern Neck chapter of the Virginia Native Plant Society is holding this year’s Native Plant Sale at Dug In Farm on Fleets Bay Road, off Route 3 in White Stone. The event began on Sept. 19 and continues through Oct. 10.
The local chapter focuses on native plants through field trips, native plant presentations by experts, literature and other forms of education including an annual fall native plant sale which raises money for these endeavors.
The sale will feature over 1,000 plants, all of which are Virginia natives with 95 percent of them native to the Coastal Plain of Virginia including the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula. It is one of the few sources of native plants in the area, although Dug In Farms is now offering more and more natives, with about 20 natives offered for sale.
