We are fortunate to live in such a richly bio-diverse area of the world. Nestled beside this beautiful river, under the sun & the shade of countless trees, our lands offer more medicine, health, food & wisdom than a person could receive in one lifetime. This #EarthDay Weekend, Stockton Market celebrates the land we call home and all the lovely gardeners and farmers within it with a local **Plant Sale**. We’ve invited a few well-loved farms to bring locally grown & organic herbal, vegetable & native plants to sell at the market.

So start dreaming up your gardens! On April 22nd & 23rd, come make these garden dreams a reality with exciting & unique herbal, vegetable & native plants brought to you by Fields Without Fences Herbal Farm, Roots to River Farm & Wild Ridge Plants, LLC Nursery.
