Contract Grow Agreement

Although we keep an ongoing inventory, your project may require that you have material grown on a contractual basis to ensure timely delivery. At Carolina Native Nursery, we will be happy to grow material that you need for your project according to contract specifications. A contract growing agreement is generally used for projects that will be shipped in the longer term (3-24 months). Contract Grow agreements are also used for the following reasons.

1. Quantities of material that exceed the general market demand for a particular variety.
2. Non-standard containers or sizes.
3. Species that do not fall within our normal production list.
4. Material that requires a full production cycle to produce, due to seasonal growth considerations.

Contract growing offers many advantages in today’s market. By securing plant material in advance, you will save considerable time when it’s time to plant. Consequently, you will not have to struggle with the erratic availability of certain species. This allows you to secure a negotiated price on all of the plant material for your project much closer to the date that it was awarded to you. Plus, you will not have to risk the unpredictable price escalations that can occur within each year. But be careful; if the projects you work on are prone to serious delays (4-6 months), contract growing may not be the right choice for you. Contract growing ensures you will get the products you want, delivered when you need them at a great price!
