2024 Update: Opening Date is tentatively Friday May 10 but it will depend on the weather as always. We’ll keep you updated as we get closer to opening. Here’s the updated list of varieties available for 2024. Are you ready for another year of gardening? With grocery prices increasing all the time, gardening has become even more important – to save money and have healthy food. I keep trying to reduce the number of varieties and amounts every year but we still have over 250 varieties available of tomatoes so there will be plenty to choose from. We are so very sorry to report that there will be NO PEPPERS this year as I have just been informed that my pepper growers lost the entire crop. (Insert heart breaking emoji here.) If you know of any other sources of heirloom pepper plants let me know so I can pass on that info. We do have a nice selection of onion plants again this year along with many other vegetables and herbs as usual, including tomatillos, ground cherries and eggplant. And don't forget our incredible selections of basils - over a dozen varieties. We have Italian Basils that I get the seed direct from Italy - super yummy. If you want to reserve your tomato varieties, please email us with your want list. Google has made some updates that have made our Wishlist ordering not work correctly. You can add to the Wishlist to keep track of what you want but you will need to copy paste it to an email order. Please send your orders via email to plantswithstories@gmail.com. Please add your name (and user name if desired), phone number and what pick up date you are requesting. (You can change that date if needed via email or phone.) Most of the varieties will only have 6-12 seedlings started so get your orders in soon to reserve. The most popular varieties will have at least 18 seedlings Prices remain the same as last year. Tomato plants and most peppers are $5 each or 3 for $12.00. 6-packs of veggies and herbs are $3 or 4/$10.00. Hours we will be open -Tuesday through Saturday from 9-6 to help you with your selections. We will be closed for normal assisted sales on Sunday and Monday. If those are the only days you are available, you can make an appointment and we’ll be there for you – and the same goes for after 6pm. Just make an appointment. Also, on Sundays and Mondays, you can still drop by for self serve shopping. We just won’t be down there all day to help. Don’t forget to check out our Facebook Page – Plants with Stories for updates and any new happenings – and please share. We depend on word of mouth from you. Italics in the list are new varieties for this year. MF means multiflora. Many of these are new varieties that have not yet been added to our website but if you Google them you should find a description for most of them. Email any questions to plantswithstories@gmail.com. Remember to check back for changes to the listing depending on germination and sales. I’m so looking forward to seeing you all again. I always say I have the VERY BEST customers! We are seriously looking for someone to pass the baton to in taking over this stewardship to create their own business as it is getting to be a bit much for 2 almost 70 year olds. J Please let us know if you or someone you know might be interested. |
