SHIPPING Update during COVID-19:
Previously, we shipped via USPS. Unfortunately, during COVID-19, shipping times have been delayed, and our priority is always to ensure you receive healthy plants. Due to this shipping delay, we have researched and will be utilizing UPS 2-Day Shipping moving forward. We feel this will ensure the healthiest seedlings, arriving in a timely manner. UPS is a premier shipping service, and therefore a $10 shipping charge will be added to all orders.
We still require the minimum of 12 items to ship, shipping Monday-Wednesday. Orders placed up until Sunday will ship between Monday and Wednesday. It is our goal to provide you with the absolute healthiest seedlings for you and your family. Please note that even with 2-Day Shipping, due to the pandemic and the extreme amount of packages being delivered around the country, higher even than during Christmas, no shipping company is providing a guarantee to shipping times. Because of this, 2-Day Shipping is the best option. Thank you for your understanding. As always, we are committed to providing a wide variety of the healthiest seedlings to you.
Please ensure that all shipping information is correct, as this could result in delays in receiving a shipment.
