Saanich Native Plants offers a wide selection of plants and seeds that are native to southern Vancouver Island. Our plants are propagated from our own stock and are local in origin. Saanich Native Plants resides on the Coast Salish Territory of the W̱SÁNEĆ Peoples.
Saanich Native Plants provides consultation to private landowners and land managers in selecting appropriate species, planting methods, site preparation, and maintenance. We are happy to accommodate custom orders.
We have been part of Haliburton Community Organic Farm since 2013 and all of our plants and seeds are certified organic (IOPA #1305-1958). We do not use any chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, or hormones to grow our plants.
We are open every Sunday from 9am-5pm. Other days of the week, we ask that you schedule your visit so that we can accommodate our workshops, courses, events, and consultations. Scheduled visits are casual, and we encourage you to come even if it's just to look!
Packaged greens of Stinging Nettle, Miner's Lettuce, Barestem Desert-Parsley, and Nodding Onion are available TODAY!
