Typically with more than 100 varieties of field-grown perennials, STORK ROAD FARM is a great local source for both beloved and unusual plants. (plant list 2013-(more limited selection in 2013 while we build stock) Because we grow them here in the north country, we guarantee they're hardy. If you plant with care, and divide occasionally, you will enjoy years of beautiful perennials.

In 2013, our perennials will be available through an "on-farm sale day" only...date to be announced.
We will NOT be at the Glens Falls Farmers Market, downtown Glens Falls this season (mid May - early Sept)
