Get your certified organic vegetable, herb, and flower starts at the farm! It’s happening at Snowdrift Farm, 3.5 miles SW of Victor. Find us by going to the “Directions” page on this website. We will be implementing CDC recommendations for social distancing etc., so please stay tuned for details. 

Purchase 1 or 100 starts! These vegetable, herb, and flower varieties have been tested on our farm, and do well in our climate (ask us for growing tips!). All varieties are started from seed on the farm, and all soil & most seed is OMRI certified organic. Available for purchase in individual soil blocks* and pots. Come early for best selection. Cash, checks and credit cards accepted.

*Soil Blocks are pressed soil cubes that don’t need any plastic pots, and are ready to plant directly in the garden. The plants suffer no transplant shock with soil blocks.

Our plants will be hardened off and ready to plant in the garden —(for hothouse things like tomatoes, etc, they may or may not be hardened off depending on our weather!). We have an expanded flower selection this year, and you will find varieties for pots, bedding, edible, and cutting flowers.

All our pots are reused thanks to Trail Creek Nursery, valley yogurt eaters, and other individual donors of used pots.
