Frequently Asked Questions
When will my seedlings be ready?
Seedling flats will be ready for late April pickup, timed for safe transplanting in our growing season. You will receive a pickup email with exact dates and times.
How many plants are in each flat?
Each flat includes 10 plants, all grown in 3 inch compostable pots.
Can I choose specific varieties?
Flats are fixed selections to keep growing organized and plants healthy. Each flat is thoughtfully curated by category.
Occasionally, a variety may be substituted with a comparable plant if something underperforms.
Are these seedlings hardened off?
Yes. All seedlings will be hardened off and ready to plant at pickup.
What if the weather is bad in April?
If weather requires a slight adjustment to pickup timing, you will be notified well in advance. Plants will not be released until they are ready for success.
What is your refund policy?
Because plants are grown to order, preorders are non-refundable once seed-starting begins.
Is this good for beginner gardeners?
Absolutely. These seedling flats are ideal for beginners who want a strong start without managing seed trays and timing themselves.
Will there be extra seedlings available without preordering?
Possibly, but not guaranteed. Preordering is the only way to ensure availability.
Is this right for you?
This offering is perfect if you:
-
Want locally grown plant starts
-
Prefer quality over browsing

Preorders close February 28
Once ordering closes, seed trays are planted and quantities are locked in.
