Penn State Extension’s Master Watershed Steward program helps residents across the Commonwealth access native trees and shrubs while raising money for projects that educate communities and promote healthy watersheds. The statewide Annual Native Tree and Shrub Sale is an online pre-order sale allowing customers to make their purchase in August and pick up their orders in the fall. Each year, the program curates a different selection of native trees and shrubs to highlight based on watershed improvement goals, community interest, healthy stock and availability, and landscape needs. A Pennsylvania wholesale native nursery that strives for ecologically sound practices provides the species, which are sold in either 1-gallon, 2-gallon, or 3-gallon pots. The sale is open until August 28th.
Please note that all species offered are native to at least some part of Pennsylvania but not necessarily native to all parts of Pennsylvania. We encourage you to select species that are native to your planting zone.
