Thanks to everyone who came out on May 4th! We have some plants remaining and will be selling them at a pop-up sale on May 5th, along with Umstead merch including the new 2024 great horned owl T-Shirt design, hats, Piedmont garden guides and more!
Come pick up some locally-grown native plants, with several grown by Umstead's very own Ranger Nick!
All proceeds from the event go to support Umstead State Park.
Location: We'll be set up in the grassy area on the right when you drive into the parking lot at the Harrison Ave, Cary entrance to Umstead State Park (2100 N Harrison Ave, Cary, NC 27513).
