We love our retail partners! They're all independent shops that prioritize local products, a commitment to community, and supporting their local economy.

Whether or not you want to get your seeds in person, supporting these businesses means supporting your neighbours, and that can only be a good thing!

Now is your chance to stock up before prices go up!

This wasn't a decision taken lightly. We took a hard look at our books and at the Canadian seed market, with a focus on small, independent seed companies like ours, and settled on a number that fits within the range of prices offered by similar seed companies.

Our pricing decisions are as transparent as our supply chain! 100% of our seeds are grown here in BC, by our member growers, so the links in our supply chain are short: Farmer > BC Eco Seed Co-op > YOU. Heck you can even shop by farm! And all of our seeds are open-pollinated, GE & GMO-free, certified organic and ecologically grown, and regionally adapted to suit BC's unique bioregions.

While you're stocking up, don't forget to check out our End of Year Sale with 40% off on selected varieties. And if you're looking for a gift for the grower in your life, we've got you covered.

We have 150+ varieties of organic and ecologically grown, cold-tolerant and overwintering flowers, herbs and veggies, giving you fresh harvest from Autumn through to Spring.

All of our seeds are grown in BC by our members, meaning they're adapted to our unique conditions - including winter growing!

Be sure to check your frost dates and the DTM (days to maturity) to make sure you select the right seeds for your region. Not sure what crops you can overwinter in your area? Check out our planting charts for the Lower Mainland & Vancouver Island and Northern & Interior BC.
