OAEC Plant Sales

We offer three plant sales annually, the Spring, Summer and Fall sales.



We boast an especially comprehensive selection of California Certified Organic seedlings — all grown in our nursery, many from seed collected from our gardens. We have hundreds of our favorite open-pollinated vegetable, flower and herb heirlooms — the tastiest, most beautiful, most interesting and rare, and most regionally appropriate varieties. We will feature many of our “signature” plants — food crops and ornamentals that have been grown here for years and have become identified with our Mother Garden.

  • Fall Biodiversity Plant Sale (August 2010)

    One of the great joys of living in Northern California is that we can garden all year round, creating fall and winter gardens that rival the beauty, diversity and productivity of summer gardens. This is the time to put fall and winter seedlings into the ground while the soil is still warm! Choose from hundreds of varieties of heirloom brassicas, lettuces, salad greens, chards, leeks, and herbs as well as old-fashioned annual flowers. We'll have lots of ornamental and edible perennials too.

    This is a free event with Garden Tours at 11 AM and 1 PM.
