    From Seed to Shipment: Picking and Packing Native Plants - Garden for Wildlife

    In the last step of our 4-part series, we're at the greenhouse learning about picking and packing those native plants that were grown just for the Garden for Wildlife customer.

    There's a lot happening at this final step: inspecting, selecting, packing, shipping, and even weather can all be challenges, but the team goes to great detail to get healthy plants to you.

    If you missed the first 3 videos in the "From Seed to Shipment" series, check them out:

    Once you receive your Garden for Wildlife plants, we do recommend you water immediately, as your plants will need it after their journey. From there, check out our blog post on how to plant your native plants. You'll be supporting local wildlife in no time!

    Gardeners: If you want sustainably-grown, easy-care plants that will thrive where you live, help local wildlife, provide beautiful colors for multiple seasons, and return every year, you've come to the right place!
