For nearly 40 years, Fairhaven Neighbors has been pleased to sponsor the annual Fairhaven Plant and Tree Sale Extravaganza on the last Saturday of March — an event that draws garden lovers from all over Whatcom and Skagit counties. This event directly supports local and regional growers, and is Fairhaven Neighbors’ annual fundraiser. Fairhaven Neighbors also shares up to half of its portion of the proceeds with other local community non-profits.
Everyone is invited to shop at this one-day-only rain or shine event! See below for details, or check out our “Fairhaven Plant and Tree Sale” Facebook page.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How the plant sale works: Vendors pay a registration fee and graciously donate 15% of their gross sales to the “Fairhaven Neighbors” neighborhood association, which in turn use funds for neighborhood events/projects and to support other local non-profits.
New Vendors Welcome! If you would like to learn about becoming a vendor for next year, please contact: FairhavenPlantSale@gmail.com
Nursery retail and wholesalers, and garden art vendors are welcome to inquire. Please note that we do NOT accept electronic (Venmo, etc.) registration payments from vendors.
