As fall approaches, it's time to plant cold-season crops, whether that's root vegetables that will overwinter or greens in a cold frame or hoop house. (Just think...you could be growing your own, cyclospora-free lettuce!)

Check out our cold season collection here:

Vegetable Seeds & Flower Seeds that grow in early spring, fall & winter and enjoy light to moderate frosts. These seeds generally do not tolerate mid-summer heat and are planted in early spring and fall.

RIP Wendell Berry ❤️ Thank you for scooping my heart up at 21 when many loud voices around me said I needed to "make something" (corporate) of my college education. Your writings showed me that growing food and seeds is honorable, exactly what the world needs, and exactly what I need. To be sandwiched between the soil and the sky with the plants and critters. Farming is not an easy path but it healed my heart and spirit. For that I will be forever grateful to Wendell.

We have been reflecting on what Independence really means on this July 4th, and are once again turning to our garden for answers 🌼.
