Seed Resources

 At times, folks will ask where we get our seeds from. Honestly, we are trying to save our own seeds as much as possible. Whether you are growing for market, or just growing for the family, it's nice to know where the trusted sources are. We live in an environment with a relatively short growing season. The following list is just our old standbys. Take it or leave it. 




Johnny's Selected Seeds

This Maine based company has probably set the standard. High Quality and reliable.

Fedco

Another Maine based company. A super solid, reliable company that certainly specializes in heirloom type seeds. Great prices and zero hype. Very good selection of organic seeds.

Artisan Seeds

Artisan specializes in tomatoes. They are a California based company, but we have grown their cherry tomato offerings in Colorado for years. There tomatoes are beautiful, dependable, and delicious.

MASA Seed Foundation

A Colorado based seed foundation. It is run by a colleague from our Boulder Farmer's Market days named Rich Pecoraro. All of their seed selections would be classified as organic. MASA's seeds are acclimatized to the Front Range of Colorado in particular, and the short season, arid western United States in general!

Native Seeds Search

They have a mission to conserve indigenous seed lines. Very hardy stock.

Strictly Medicinal Seeds

The website/ catalog alone is filled with so much valuable information. If you want to grow medicinal herbs for home use, this is the spot to get some plants or seeds.
