Encouraging home gardening and seed saving since 1986
Announcement
Many changes have been taking place on our end, including Jim and Rachelle now set up to operate the seed business together from the Battlefords area (much closer to our Cochin area family farm location).Looking forward to serving you all!
Rachelle and Jim
Jim turns 80 this year on November 18th!
Feel free to join us for a celebration in honour of Jim's 80th Birthday in Battleford. We want to give him the recognition he deserves for living such a full life of purpose and meaning and he shows no signs of stopping! All he requests of guests is to bring a postage stamp, and a potluck dish if you are joining us for supper :-). Let's show our love and appreciation for all he has done and continues to do! Ideally people can RSVP so we have a sense of numbers but please don't let that stop you from joining us last minute.

Grains & Cereals
Our collection of grains and cereals is probably the largest publicly accessible personal collection out there. Jim is a collector and so has accumulated varieties over the years, some of which are becoming of great interest to all of you in the last number of years! Check out the beauty and diversity that exists amongst a group of plants where we often only see a couple standard varieties. Of this collection, the diversity in our wheats is greatest, from einkorn wheats to spelts and emmers to species wheats to bread wheats and durum wheats! Pictured here is Warrior Barley.
