The Ministry of Agriculture and Lands, Forestry, Marine Resources and Cooperatives is pleased to announce an earlier opening of the Plant Distribution Season on June 17, 2025.

The favorable weather conditions, combined with the dedication and hard work of staff at the
various propagation stations, have enabled the Ministry to create an optimal growing environment
for plantlets. As a result, farmers and home gardeners can benefit from an early start to the planting season.

An official ceremony to mark the opening of the season will be held on June 17, 2025, at the
Mirabeau Propagation Station from 9:00 AM. Following the opening of the season, farmers and
gardeners will be able to purchase the high quality, subsidized plantlets including fruit trees,
ornamentals and spices from, Government’s propagation stations located at:

• Mirabeau and Boulogne in St. Andrew
