Why start with a plant

The head start seeds can’t give you

Seeds and pods spend their first weeks just trying to sprout. We grow every starter plant on our farms first, so yours arrives rooted and ready to plant.

Based on lettuce, which is ready to harvest about 21 days after planting a starter plant vs. about 45 days from seed. Replanting at harvest, that’s up to 17 harvests a year vs. about 8 from seed. Fruiting plants like tomatoes and peppers take longer to mature and keep producing once they start, so for those the head start means an earlier first harvest rather than more of them.

Why growers grow

Food you’ve grown yourself just tastes different

Four things that get better when some of your food grows at home, in our growers’ own words.

  • Peak Flavor

    The freshest thing in your kitchen is still growing.

    “They are some of the tastiest (and freshest!) herbs I have ever cooked with.”

    Jamie B.Verified buyer

  • Food you trust

    Know your farmer. Be your farmer.

    “It feels AMAZING knowing my produce is so clean!!!”

    M. G.Verified buyer

  • The joy of growing

    “I grew this.” Nobody has to know how easy it was.

    “I am a first-time grower of plants (any kind) and the easy success I’m having … has been a really pleasant surprise.”

    Johanna H.Verified buyer

  • A more grounded day

    Step outside. Pick dinner. Breathe.

    "After a busy day, stepping outside to pick fresh greens for dinner has become my favorite way to unwind. It’s such a simple thing, but it makes me slow down, and appreciate the little moments"

    Shelly P.Verified buyer
