The plants have been grown with no herbicides or pesticides, and with ecological* methods in mind, in soil blocks (introductory video here) and sturdy trays to minimise use of plastic. The plants are being sold in plastic pots, however with a deposit to encourage the return of the pots for re-use if they are still in good shape. If you can’t return them, please pass them on to another green thumb in your life so they may live on again.
*What is meant by ecological? Soil health is prioritized, with additives such as compost-rich soil, effective micro-organism and fungal treatments and home-made worm castings, from the very beginning rather than later correcting symptoms of ill soil and plant health with chemicals and sprays.
All plants are $5 each unless otherwise marked*
*Includes $1 pot deposit.
Please reach out for the most up-to-date numbers.
Inventory will be adjusted as plant stock rotates through the season. There may be more plants coming up as they germinate through the spring. Check back every few weeks to see what will be forthcoming.
Plants are sold first come, first serve. Cash, credit card, debit card, E-transfer or PayPal are accepted; porch pickup can be requested.
Available varieties
Tomatoes
Ready for pickup the last week of April. Unless otherwise noted, almost all are of certified organic, heirloom and/or open pollinated source. (Please note: Tomatoes and peppers should not be planted until night time temps are reliably above 10 degrees Celsius, here in Clinton that is usually 1st week of June but sometimes earlier. Otherwise they may not set fruit. Due to space limitations, plants have not been hardened off so please do so yourself.)
