It's time to start starting seeds!

Though it's still early to plant in the garden, it IS time to start planting seeds indoors! Already, things are happening here at the shoppe!
  • Vegetable starts are sprouting in the greenhouse 
  • Peppers have been planted (they take longer than tomatoes) 
  • Orders have been sent for Fairy Garden accessories & Naked Bee lotions 
  • Bruce  has picked up strawberry plants, lemon trees, fig trees, Encore Azaleas & much, much more earlier this month! 
Are you ready to start seeds at your house? Let us help you! Right now is the time to start peas and salad greens! Did you know that the leaves of your peas are edible? They are! They are a tasty unique addition to salads, and you can harvest them while you wait for your peas to grow!

We carry Seeds of Change, and Territorial Seed! Both are non GMO seed companies and provide a variety of choices for your gardening needs!
Have you tried seed tape? Talk about easy to plant, and beautifully straight rows!
