Description
Sometimes the best ideas happen when you least expect them!
One day, while walking the dog, I came across some amazing swamp chestnut oak acorns in my yard. I started wondering what I could do with them. Then I thought, why not plant them, grow the seedlings, and eventually offer them for sale?
After doing some research, I spent the fall of 2025 building four air-pruning nursery beds. I planted the acorns, and I'm happy to report that the little trees have been growing beautifully!
What started with a handful of acorns has now grown into our Black Belt Prairie Native Plant Nursery!
My hope is to continue growing and selling native trees, shrubs, flowering plants, and other specialty niche crops. Proceeds from nursery sales will help support our pollinator habitat and the ongoing work of maintaining our farm.
We're looking forward to offering seedlings and plants for sale in spring 2027!
If you're interested in purchasing plants or would like to know what we have available, simply send me an email at tuskegeehoney@gmail.com.
Stay tuned as our little nursery continues to grow!
Thank you for your continued interest and support. Every purchase helps us keep growing, preserving habitat, and supporting pollinators here in Alabama.
