You may have noticed that some varieties are gradually disappearing from the catalogue. This is not an oversight; I’ve chosen to cultivate my preferences.
This year, I’ve focused my seed production on tomatoes and a few other rare varieties that I grow in my garden and have chosen to keep in the catalogue.
The other varieties will remain available while supplies last.
Brix, flavor profiles, tastings, Sisters of Flavor and Sisters of Use will be added: all ways to help you discover what you prefer.
Cultivate your preferences.
Order processing time is 2 to 8 business days. We are ready to process orders from September 10. Thanks for your patience.
