Herring Run Nursery

Located at a municipally-operated golf course, Herring Run Nursery sells plants natively grown in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed that promote a healthy environment.  Its profits support its parent nonprofit, Blue Water Baltimore, a group aiming to restore the quality of Baltimore’s rivers, streams, and harbor in order to foster a healthy environment, a strong economy, and thriving communities.  In 2014, the nursery sold over 22,000 native plants to more than 1,400 customers, generating roughly 10 percent of the nonprofit’s total $2.5 million in revenues.
