Luther Burbank

Sustainable Seed Companies Burbank Seed Restoration Project.

We are working very hard to restore many of Luther Burbank's vegetables and grains.  Many have been lost forever, but a few have survived.  These varieties were developed right here in Sonoma County and are superbly adapted to our area.  We will be offering these seeds again for the first time in some cases since Burbank's death in 1926.  Burbank may have died, but his hard work and amazing creations will live on.  We are proud to be able to offer and share the work of "The Plant Wizard".

Luther Burbank was a pretty amazing man. If you haven't already read "The Garden of Invention", you might want to. It's a pretty cool read.
