Plant Sentry™
Plant Sentry™
Plant Sentry is designed to protect both consumers and the nursery trade from invasive plant pests and diseases. Sites that display the Plant Sentry protection badge are protected from consumers buying and nurseries shipping material carrying invasive pests and diseases.
This proprietary eCommerce software prevents the shipment of a restricted plant to each state. The Plant Sentry system includes a shipment certification program. The Plant Sentry Compliance Officer works closely with NatureHills.com and each nursery or fulfillment center to ensure only compliant plants are sold to customers.

Shipping
To obtain a more accurate shipment time-frame, simply enter your zip code in the “Find Your Growing Zone” box to the right. Our plants are grown all over the country and lead time on items may be different because of this. Once your order is placed, you will also receive the specific shipment time-frame information as part of your order confirmation. Once an item ships, you will receive shipment notification and tracking numbers, so you can follow along while your plant travels to your doorstep. We use FedEx, UPS, or USPS at our discretion.
Due to winter weather we have put a hold on shipping to the areas shown below in grey. You can still order now and we will ship the plant to you during an appropriate time for your zone.

Fermentation is quickly becoming a health trend in our modern society, and you can be one of the first of your friends to be able to brag about how you can ferment and create any kind of pickles you could ever want.
Fermenting creates healthy bacteria that can be extremely good for you! This is like the bacteria found in yogurt and kombucha that helps give you a healthy gut. There are tons of foods that can be fermented and have all kinds of health benefits.
When it comes to fermenting foods, get excited and get experimental! If not for the health benefits that come along with fermenting your food, then for the fact that fermented foods are just downright delicious and tasty!
