Welcome to Pinehurst, North Carolina!
Our plant sale is winding down and we are no longer taking orders. If you missed our pre-sale ordering we encourage you to visit Green Haven Plant Farm on April 26 to purchase from the large stock available there. Click here to view our plant sale page for more information.
Our home is the beautiful and historic Village of Pinehurst, located in the Sandhills of North Carolina. Known as the home of American golf and the longleaf pine ecosystem, its temperate climate makes gardening a popular activity.
Is this a Good Guy or a Bad Guy?
If you see this guy devouring your milkweed plant DO NOT squash him. This is a monarch caterpillar and exactly why we grow milkweed. You may be lucky enough to see him transform into a monarch butterfly. Black swallowtail caterpillars are similar in appearance and you may find them on your parsley or fennel. Bite the bullet and buy parsley at the grocery store and leave these guys alone.

Transform your garden with flowering shrubs that provide vibrant foliage, colorful berries and lasting interest even after the blooms fade.
It's Nesting Time!
The brown-headed nuthatches have started checking out the nest boxes to get ready for their broods. The bluebirds won’t be far behind. You can purchase nest boxes at the Village Hall in Pinehurst for $15. They are well-made by a local NC Bluebird group. Proceeds help to maintain the pollinator habitat along the Greenway Trail in Pinehurst.
