Flower Power, a new native plant nursery in Red Hook, invites enthusiasts and novices alike to explore its extensive selection of native perennials, shrubs, trees, edibles, and medicinals.  Every plant is carefully chosen to thrive in the local environment, promoting ecological resilience and supporting biodiversity. Beyond plants, Flower Power offers visitors a curated selection of seed packets, bulk restorative perennial seed mixes, bird feeders, bat boxes, wind chimes, books, gifts & more. One of Flower Power's key initiatives is its commitment to reducing waste by potting bareroot plants in 100% reused plastic pots using bulk organic potting soil. This  approach minimizes environmental impact and is an example of a positive model that doesn’t rely on endless single-use plastic pots & bagged soils.
