|
2) Is wholesale pricing really an advantage?
As you make up an order that meets our MINIMUM ORDER STANDARDS (see above question 1), the shipping cost becomes significant and needs to be factored in to the total price. Our customers will still find the price to be advantageous. Buying from the grower with door to door shipment is a good way to obtain healthy plants with customer convenience. Please see our Conditions of Sale page for Terms and Methods of Payment.
|
3) What is Seasonal Shipping and when can I expect shipment?
Because we are a growing farm and our material is deciduous and bareroot, our shipping season is limited to nature's optimum window, from Fall through Spring. You may place an order any time, even up to a year in advance of shipment, but all orders will be shipped only during the time period from November 1 through June 1, as near as possible to your requested date.
|
4) What guarantee comes with my purchase?
Please see the Guarantee section of our Conditions of Sale page for complete wording.
