Why custom grow?

• Some seeds are nearly impossible to germinate outside of a greenhouse.
• Some of the best heirloom varieties in the world are not common enough to be sold at your local gardening store
• Some of the most recently released, highest yielding, cutting edge hybrids are not yet being sold at your local gardening store
• You want your plants to be grown from the start with a special custom soil mix  or unusual growing medium
• You want unique floral centerpieces or favors for your wedding or special event, and you don’t want to be charged the “wedding-industrial complex tax”
• You have saved the seed of a plant you grew last year and want an 100% guarantee that your seeds will grow into healthy plants.

We have years of experience custom-growing for home gardeners, small farmers, and other specialty customers.  Here are a few of our past custom grow projects:

• An entire season worth of crops for a local sustainable farmer who appreciated taking the guesswork out of planting
• Specialty dyeing plants for a fiber guild
• Specialty dyeing plants and local wildflowers for a charter school garden
• Unusually colored heirloom tomato varieties grown in a custom made organic growing mix for a local sustainable farmer
• Rare herbs native to Israel and Jordan for a cook who missed the flavors of her home
• An extremely productive newly released tomato hybrid for a local sustainable farmer

 

How it Works
