Vegetables

We're offering a large selection of organic vegetables at our plants sale this year! All are grown locally without chemical herbicides, pesticides and fertilizers. The plants were started from non-treated, non-gmo seed and certified organic seed, where possible. Each plant is in a 4-inch biodegradable coir pot in an Organic Material Review Institute approved soilless mix and fed with sea-based fertilizers and compost. Only beneficial insects were used to treat any pests. Plus, many of the varieties are heirlooms! Here are the details:
