Growing Greens Fast

Growing your own salad greens trumps buying grocery lettuce any day. Not only is it easy but it allows you to experiment with new flavors. In just 10 days, "micro greens" have their first set of leaves and are ready to snip. Judy Seaborn of Botanical Interests seed company developed a harvest technique that produces a young crop that is pretty, good-tasting when small, and has similar germination rates. Spicy Mix contains cress, mustard,radish, and red cabbage. Mild Mix is made up of kohrabi, pak choy, red beets, red cabbage and Swiss chard. (the pictures are reversed on our website)

Christmas Trees

We are bringing in an additional variety of Christmas tree this season.
Nordman's Fir (Abies nordmanniana)

The Nordman has gained considerably in popularity as a Christmas tree, thanks mainly to it's excellent needle holding, glossy deep green foliage and very attractive shape. The needles, which point forward and grow round the branches are soft and thick with white lines on the underside. The bark is smooth and gray. This species has benefited greatly from extensive research into ideal seed provenance and growing methods, which has brought about a very good quality, high value tree.

Which Christmas Tree does your family or office like? Douglas Fir - Noble Fir - Fraser Fir or our newest variety Nordman Fir.

Tomato Tasting - Cancelled

Due to circumstances beyond our control we have to cancel our Tomato and Pepper tasting event which was scheduled for next Sunday September 11, 2005. We were looking forward to tasting the winter tomatoes and peppers. There will be no tasting but we have begun to get in some winter growing varieties. And our Botanical Interest seeds have been restocked with many varities of tomatoes
