Vegetable Transplants

Start your garden with our healthy plants.  Come and get vegetable seedlings ready to plant.   These are available at the farm for a few weeks from early May through late June.  

Our wide selection of homegrown perennials, tomatoes, peppers, annuals, and herbs is available from May 1st through the summer.

We grow only great tasting varieties that produce well in Wisconsin.
