Originally grown in Hendricks County, these plants thrive without any chemical intervention. Locally saved seeds adapt better to our soil, climate, and moisture levels than seeds sourced from distant environments, ensuring stronger, more resilient plants.

All of the seeds we grow and sell come from heirloom varieties that are open-pollinated and completely non-GMO. Our seed-saving process is done entirely by hand, without the use of machines, so you may find bits of plant material and chaff mixed in.
