Tilth Alliance’s Edible Plant Sale
Support Tilth Alliance’s biggest fundraiser of the year! Our annual Edible Plant Sale features the largest selection of organically, sustainably and locally grown vegetable plant starts in the Puget Sound region. All revenue from the Edible Plant Sale will benefit Tilth Alliance’s year-round programming.
