Floral Encounters

Certified organically grown seeds for specialty herbs and flowers, all grown and harvested on their own farm. They have a very long list of herb seeds, including seeds for harsh environments and seeds for deer resistant plants. Because they are a small farm, they sell their seed semi-cleaned. “This means that not all the plant material from around the seed is removed. Doing this is extremely time consuming and labor intensive and the main reason that seeds are as expensive as they are. So to keep the costs down we remove as much debris as possible but leave the more difficult pieces. So when you get your seeds, they won’t be pristine and just seeds; they will have other bits of plant material in with them.” I don’t mind that at all. Shows they are hand-harvested and not put through mechanical processing.
