Orchard House Heirlooms is dedicated to bring to market the most sustainable seeds on the planet, heirlooms.
Heirloom seeds are not only preserving our heritage, but the only seed that can reproduce the identical plant it came from.
Our motto "Seeds for Life" is just that. Once you plant an heirloom you will never need to buy another seed.
All of our seeds are Heirloom or Organic Heirloom. We do not sell Hybrid or GMO (Genetically Modified) Seeds.
If we are to be self reliant we need to grow vegetables and be able to harvest the fruit naturally but also the seed to grow the following season.
We offer Heirloom, Organic Heirloom Vegetables and Herbs. We are growing everyday and striving to include in our online catalog more and more variety of seeds regularly.
The Safe Seed Pledge:
"Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. We must protect this foundation as a safe
and genetically stable source for future generations. For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers who
want an alternative,
We pledge that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants.
The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families
or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats. We feel that
genetically engineered varieties have been insufficiently tested prior to public release. More research and testing is
necessary to further assess the potential risks of genetically engineered seeds. Further, we wish to support
agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems and ultimately healthy
people and communities."
