Can't wait for the full summer sun!

Sprouted so fast and strong but still seedlings. Very pleased so far with their progress!

Velvet Queen Sunflower
Pleasantly happy with this collection

I have had some trouble with the rosemary and lavender - but who doesn't have trouble with that from seed? But the others have been GREAT little seedlings so far.

Wow! Great Grower!

Every seed came up, they're about 3' tall with a sturdy stem. Waiting until mid March to put out in the southern (Ga) garden. Will be licking my lips watching them flower and fruit. I like these as an addition to a traditional red tomato salad.

2019/20 Order

All of the seed in my order arrived in good time. The sweet chinese giant pepper is the only variety I've planted, and it germinated great and are doing well under lights.

In the ground!

My seeds came on time and I started them for sets. Just planted about 240 onion sets 2 weeks ago and they look great!

Texas 1015 SuperSweet Onion Seed
5 stars

I had 40 mph winds my greenhouse fell over and was so surprised the seeds survived two days in the cold under soil and are still growing. The roots were in tact so i transplanted them, they are doing just fine. 10 stars

Organic Winter Rye

 

Spring or Fall Planted



Rye is unusual among grains for the high level of fiber in its endosperm – not just in its bran.

Because of this, rye products generally have a lower glycemic index than products made from wheat and most other grains, making it especially healthy for diabetics.

Rye Berries can be cooked as a whole grain, a hearty breakfast cereal or ground in your own mill for the freshest rye flour available.

Rye can also be sprouted to use in salads and on sandwiches.

Rye makes some of the most nutritional flour.

It is higher in fiber than other types of common bread and is darker in color and stronger in flavor.

Rye is perfect for a pumpernickel bread loaf or robust peasant breads.

When planted in the fall, Winter Rye establishes quickly, providing lush green cover through the winter, offering producers erosion and weed control while building organic matter in the soil.

Winter Rye can also be used when fall planting is needed for temporary pasture.

When planted in the spring, Winter Rye can be used as a cover crop or for green manure.

Winter rye

I planted the winter rye in my small garden "patch" (20x20) to enrich and loosen the soil. I planted a bit late (November), but it came up well and is slowly growing. (Zone 7 - TN)
I had hoped to buy cereal rye that I got from you few years back, and it worked sooo well to loosen the soil. But didn't find it in your online store this year.
Thank you for making these products available!

Great for Montana Chickens (zone 5b)

Winter Rye did well out here after a construction project. We just threw seed on the soil in the fall. Our dirt is very alkaline glacial till (clay). It grew tall and the chickens enjoyed jumping for the rye heads. Reduced our feeding bill during the summer.
