Special Delivery or Pickup: Toadshade is primarily a mail order nursery and the farm itself is not open to the public. We have, however, partnered with our terrific local hardware store (Frenchtown Home & Hardware), which is a ‘pick-up’ point for orders, allowing order pickup 7 days a week in beautiful downtown Frenchtown (contact us to make arrangements, any pickup order costing more than $50 must be pre-paid) Plants can also be pre-ordered and picked at the Hunterdon Land Trust Farmers Market in Flemington or at other events we attend over the course of the year (see our web site at www.toadshade.com for our latest schedule). For large orders within 100 miles of Frenchtown, contact us regarding truck delivery rates. Every single one of our plants is carefully prepared, wrapped, and hand packed just before shipping. You receive healthy plants, ready to transplant. We don't make any money off of shipping - our shipping charges simply cover the freight costs, care, and materials it takes to get your plants to you in the best possible condition. Due to and/or federal quarantine restrictions plants are shipped bare root to the following locations: AK, AL, AR, AZ, ID, IN, KS, MS, MT, ND, NM, NV, OK, OR, SD, TX, UT, WA, WY, & Canada. NOTE: Plants shipped to AZ, MT, OR, and Canada must be individually inspected before shipping and a special handling fee of $25 will apply ($40 for Canada). Some shipments of woody species outside the Northeast may also require Bareroot inspections or other fees due to specific State or Federal Quarantines or shipping requirements - we will notify you if this is the case before any charges are processed For plant shipments to Canada, please contact us for a quote. Sorry, we do not ship plants to California, nor do we ship plants or seeds overseas or to the state of Hawaii due to the stringent quarantine laws involved.
