At The Local Meadow, plants are thoughtfully sourced from trusted regional growers who share a commitment to pollinator health, ecological integrity, and neonicotinoid-free practices.
Because we do not operate a traditional storefront, ordering works a little differently — and allows us to offer a curated selection of high-quality native plants.

Minimum Order
A $75 minimum order helps ensure we can efficiently coordinate sourcing and delivery.
Order Together, Grow Together
Native plants have the greatest impact when grown across a landscape.
You are welcome to combine orders with neighbors, friends, or family. This makes it easier to meet the minimum order and helps create connected habitat for pollinators.
We’re happy to coordinate delivery to one location.

Plant Sourcing
Plants are sourced from carefully selected growers in Massachusetts. All are neonicotinoid-free.
Most are:
- Native to our region
- Local ecotype (59 or adjacent ecotype)
- Pollinator-supporting species
- Grown outdoors in natural conditions
Because plants are sourced in small batches, availability may be limited.
Timing
Plants are typically available for delivery in May or June. Some may be available earlier (in April), and some may be slower to pop up. We will keep you informed about estimated delivery times.
