I PLACED AN ORDER ONLINE, WHEN CAN I PICK IT UP?
Beginning May 14th, 2020 (opening day)!
Saturday: 9 am - 7 pm
ARE YOU CERTIFIED ORGANIC?
No, I am beyond 'organic'. I do not use any type of herbicide or pesticide on the plants or in the gardens - even those which are permitted by law under the Certified Organic Program.
This being said, all components of my growing processes from soil to fertilizers are OMRI listed and inline with the USDA Organic Standards.
DO YOU GUARANTEE YOUR PLANTS?
I guarantee the plants to be free from pest and disease when you pick them up. If you begin having troubles, please contact me and together we will try to remedy the situation.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WHAT I ORDERED TURNS OUT TO BE 'OFF-TYPE'?
While I take extreme measures to ensure that plants are properly marked, accidents can happen. In years past, I had a small child pull the tags out of three trays of plants while I was chatting with his mother. The result? I ended up composting all three trays! Adults can also unknowingly pull a tag to read it and put it back in the wrong pot.
This, however, brings up a more important subject. As I've grown and added more and more varieties, I have started sourcing seed from outside my own saved seed. While I only purchase from trusted individuals, I can not guarantee purity. It is estimated that an accidental cross could occur between 2-5% of the time. This type of cross is commonly referred to as a 'God cross' or a 'Bee cross'.
If you do end up with a variety that is not what you ordered, please contact me so that I can make it right by you! In the couple of instances that this has happened, the customer loved the fruit so much that they wouldn't allow me to make amends. This said, I still would really appreciate knowing!
WHAT IS THE BEST TASTING TOMATO YOU HAVE?
Again, my taste preference is not going to match yours. How then do I chose which varieties make the catalog? I don't. Others do.
Do you sell VEGETABLES throughout the course of the summer?
Y
ES! 'The Veggie Cart' is based on the honor system and is located at the end of the driveway for easy accessibility. It is 'open' 24/7 (yes, it has lights!) spring thru fall.
