Our mission starts with protecting our planet and that with plants.
Welcome to the Biomes Plant Network Soft Launch:
- This May-June, we're starting to roll out delivery options to a limited radius of 35km around our nursery, which includes up to 5-gallon sized pots.
- We've also opened up delivery for plants in 4-inch pots to a wider range of postal codes.
- At this time, as we're in our beta testing phase, larger pot sizes may only be available for wholesale orders when you start an account with us.
