Shop guidelines
Last updated Aug 20, 2026
We are a certified plant nursery and antiques/ vintage dealer in the state of Pennsylvania since 2017. Our plants are grown and cared for in rural central PA, within our home and greenhouses. Our farmette is transitioning to organic and focused on sustainability. Many of our potting soil products and plant treatments reflect that choice. Collecting antiques and vintage has been a personal passion for 30+ years. We often participate in local estate sales, auctions, yard sales, and liquidations. Our collection includes kitchen ware, home decor, tools and equipment, toys, dolls, vintage plush, jewelry, records and much more. All items are stored in our home, temperature controlled. We are passionate about repurposing and believe everything has more than one purpose or use. Antiques and vintage items are shipped within 2 business days of purchase. If you need faster shipping we will gladly work with you. Plant orders ship Monday - Wednesday, with packages closing Sundays at 11:59PM EST. Base shipping for plants is USPS Priority, and base shipping for non plant orders is USPS Ground Advantage. If you need faster shipping, UPS upgrades are available in the shop. For Fedex or other services: we will gladly work with you, please just DM us to discuss options. You may purchase a 1 week shipping hold in our shop, and feel free to reach out with any questions. If you are local to Perry County, Pennsylvania: please note we do allow pickup however it is by appointment only. Shipping fees are waived for pickup. Depending on package contents, we may use polyfil, paper, plastic wrap, and stabilizers. We strive to ensure minimal potting material movement, breathability for plants and cuttings, moisture retention, and general plant stability in shipping. Ice packs and insulation are offered in our shop. You may also reach out to us prior to package close to request we add signage to the package to instruct USPS to hold your package for pickup. Experienced in the shipping industry, we strive to package all items in ways that maintain stability and to decrease the likelihood of damage in transit. Once the package is in the shipper's control, we cannot guarantee how the package will be handled. We suggest taking unboxing videos when you open your package, not only to chronicle your journey but also in the event of damage due to shipping. Especially in hot weather or extended shipping delays: leaf wilt and stress may occur. In rare instances of damage due to shipping, please contact us immediately to start the claims process (note pictures and the package itself may be needed for USPS inspection). We enjoy plants and our items may come from our mother plants, seeds, rehabs, imports, purchased tissue culture, and more. If you have any questions about plant care or the history of a certain item, please reach out! Our website is www.blackgumacres.com. You can also find us on Facebook or Instagram.
