GROWING METHODS:
We do not use any synthetic products in our gardens, greenhouse or on our produce. That means NO pesticides, NO herbicides, NO fungicides and NO petrochemical fertilizers. We grow the way nature intended with compost and rock dust fertilizer.

Our farm held USDA organic certification from 2010 until 2021 when the paperwork requirements became too time consuming. We now enjoy spending more time outside in the nursery. Unfortunately we can no longer describe our plants as "organic", but we continue to use growing methods that are defined by the NOP.

****Shipping****
We normally ship M-Th. When we receive your order confirmation we will carefully package your new plants and ship out no later than the next business day.

****Winter Shipping****
During winter we check the low temperatures in your area to make sure your new plants have the best chance of survival. If you expect freezing temperatures, we reserve the right to hold plant shipments up to 30 days until a warmup occurs. We'll immediately notify you and periodically remind you that we're holding your shipment. If the weather does not warm sufficiently, we will cancel your order and issue a full refund. Otherwise, we'll ship as soon as we see temperatures rise. You may cancel for a full refund at anytime before shipping.

****Heat Pack****
If you expect freezing weather and you don't want to wait, you can speed up the process by ordering a heat pack:
