We grow all of our seedlings using Vermont Compost Company’s organic potting soil. We grow a diverse range of plants and numerous different varieties, with a focus on flavor and unique, heirloom varieties.
We grow all of our seedlings in an unheated tunnel. Not only is this environmentally-friendly, it yields extremely strong, healthy transplants because they are exposed to colder temperatures earlier on in their development.
We will have a wide range of seedlings to choose from this Spring, including but not limited to:
Annual vegetables: onions, leeks, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, cucumbers, squashes, melons, tomatillos, ground cherries, broccoli, cabbage, bok choy, kale, collards, swiss chard, lettuces, specialty greens, beans and peas, chicories like radicchio, escarole, and endive – and many more.
Annual herbs: basil, parsley, cilantro, chervil, shiso, dill, sorrel
Perennial herbs from Black Earth Gardens: Mari from Black Earth Gardens will have various perennial and annual herbs available for the May greenhouse days, including basil (Thai and genovese), chives, oregano, Italian flat leaf parsley, peppermint, rosemary, sage, and thyme.
Native plants: Black eyed susan, purple coneflower, prairie clover, grasses (little bluestem, side oats grama, blue grama, prairie dropseed, etc), shrubby St. Johns wort, blue sage, spotted bee balm, and more. Dani will be there to answer your questions about planting natives.
Plants we will NOT have: flowers (although we’ll have some native flowers to choose from, we will not have a wide selection of garden flowers), trees/shrubs
The seedling share member is responsible for selecting and picking up their seedlings from the farm during one of our three “greenhouse days” this Spring. We may need to change these dates as we get closer to Spring, we will notify you if these dates change:
Saturday, April 18 from 8am-11am
Sunday, May 10, from 8am-11am
Saturday, May 16 from 3-6pm
Please bring a cardboard box with you!
