The Greenhouse
Tait Farm’s Greenhouse is truly the “secret garden” for our region. An ideal stop for the cottage and kitchen gardener, we strive to be recognized for the quality of our plants, products, and customer service. Choose from a great selection of seeds, herbs, vegetable seedlings and other backyard edibles, as well as unusual annuals and unique perennials that include heirloom roses, pollinator and native plants. We also offer organic gardening supplies, a variety of exceptional pots, planted containers, and decorative stoneware that will add beauty to any garden design.
The Spring Season in the Greenhouse
The first flowers of the season have landed! We have a beautiful selection of pansies, violas, primroses, hellibores and more. They are hardened-off and ready to plant. Tait Farm early organic vegetable seedlings will come down the hill by April 5th. These are cold-hardy plants that will be ready to grace your garden beds. Every week brings new annuals and perennials, as well as pots, statuary, urns, bird baths and garden art. See you at the farm!

Tait Farm Native Plant Nursery
This year we are starting a small native plant retail nursery. The nursery currently includes about 50 species of local ecotype native plants. All the plants we offer will be propagated either in my home garden on the farm or in the farm's propagation facilities. The selection of plants we offer has been chosen for various reasons - they provide pollen and nectar for native bees, many species are host plants for native butterflies and moths, and some are particularly useful at attracting predatory and parasatoid wasps and flies that will control unwanted pest insects. Some of the plants are showy and will integrate well into more formal gardens, and some will not fit well in formal plantings - these plants are grown for the purpose of creating habitat for all sorts of wildlife. In addition, we are propagating a handful of sedge species that make great ground covers or lawn substitutes.
